mlb.com and ghostery 1 on Safari

Edit Subject

mlb.com sites don't display properly with ghostery. I get no video and a lot of blank space on the webpage. (Ghostery 1.0.0 for Safari on Mac). If I turn off ghostery they display properly.

Hi Douglass, thanks for using Ghostery.

Eric is absolutely correct, if you unblock Facebook Connect the site will work as expected. Additionally, you may whitelist mlb.com domain to achieve the same effect.

The issue here is that MLB.com uses a bundler strategy: they combine many scripts into one via a single server

Additionally, you may whitelist mlb.com domain to achieve the same effect. The issue here is that MLB.com uses a bundler strategy: they combine many scripts into one via a single server <script> call. Even tho, Ghostery detected only a single script that should have been blocked, there is no way in Ghostery currently to differentiate between bundling vs a single include...
