Fantrax Baseball Live Feed + Highlights Extension

This is an updated version of the Fantrax Baseball Gameday Extension by Daniel Adams-Meade (me).

This extension allows Fantrax fantasy baseball owners to quickly and easily view live Gameday feeds, video streams, and highlights of their favorite players all from their Fantrax league site. Once the extension is added, two small icons should appear next to each player's name on the Live Scoring page - the camera icon links to that player's live stream, and the field icon links to that player's MLB.com Gameday feed. Additionally, player highlights are available at the bottom of the Team Roster page - now you don't have to waste time searching Google/Reddit/MLB for streams and highlights of your team, just one click and you're good!
