MLB is about as good as it gets when it comes to mobile and streaming presence, but that's no reason for it to rest on its laurels. That's why the latest update to MLB At Bat, the league's Android presence for following live action, brings several significant goodies to both free and premium users.

For those with a premium subscription, the biggest news is 60fps streaming. Quality hasn't really been bad, assuming your connection is sufficiently strong, but baseball is a sport played with a pretty small ball that moves really fast. The higher the frame rate, the easier it's going to be to see what is going on, especially on a small screen.

Another, related benefit for premium users is the ability to choose whether the high-quality, 60fps streams will only be used while on WiFi, to save data. It's a simple, but arguably necessary feature since defaulting to such a high frame rate could devastate some users' data plans.

Don't worry, those of you who don't want to spend the dough it takes for Premium features. The pitch-by-pitch live gameplay interface, formerly restricted to Premium subscribers, is now available to free users. I think this feature really sets At Bat apart from other apps, so it's a pretty big deal that this is coming out from behind the paywall. It also means that you get to see the Pitch F/X visualizations to help you identify pitches, their velocity, and whether the umpire was correct in calling balls and strikes as you follow along.

That's some cool stuff. Here's the full changelog:

• 60 FPS video now available on supported phones (premium users only)
• Manage your bandwidth with a new setting to control when 60 FPS video is used (premium users only)
• Gameday Pitch-by-Pitch available to Lite user
• Improved Videos Index UI for phones and tablets
• Videos now play in portrait or landscape on phones
• General Improvements

You can grab this update via the Play Store.
