Sunday Night Baseball

As long as Cal is not in the booth we should be fine.

Cal or Carl?

Guys, it's not getting blacked out.

I know the MLB blackout logic is about as kooky as the Cocoa Puffs bird, but tonight is very simple. IF YOU HAVE ESPN, YOU WILL SEE THE GAME.

Will the game be blacked out in North Carolina, specifically for Time Warner Cable customers? We can't get the O's games because of the ongoing MASN/TWC dispute (even mlb.tv is blacked out down here for regularly broadcasted games)...only option is DirecTv.

Comcast and MASN had that same dispute in Harrisburg. And when that was the case, DirecTV was the only choice. We moved to a home with a southern sky exposure.

That makes sense.

We should get it. In fact, I counted 7 games on this year's schedule that we will get- Tonight, 5/4 vs Angels on FOX, 5/18 vs Rays on FOX,6/29 vs Yankees on FOX, 8/10 vs Giants on FOX, 8/24 vs A's on FOX, 9/7 vs White Sox on WGN (no HD, bleh). Unfortunately, no Braves this season, that is usually good for 3 games. Oh, and another option is the local sports bar. When I get cirrhosis of the liver, I'm suing MASN/TWC.

Sorry, I meant to quote Abadie's question about TWC/ North Carolina.

I'll take ESPN's announcers over YES's announcers any day of the week.

And their camera crew. Maybe today we'll see more of the game than of the crowd doing the wave or any of those 300 segues they like to do per game.

I'll have to find an online feed. I don't have a need for cable tv, as I pretty much get all of my content from the web. Shame that MLB.TV is blacked out.

If you have MLB.tv you have access to game day audio. Radio broadcasts aren't effected by blackouts.

Karl Ravich (sp)? just said Wei-Yin Chen was from Korea. Glad to see ESPN has such a great research department.

[crissfan172]

So...Ravech just said on ESPN that Chen is from Korea. So...glad to see they respect us enough to do research. :rolleyestf:

[Loophole]

This is excruciating. Are they ever gonna talk about what's actually going on in the field?

[Rene88]

They didn't give us kudos for breaking .500 last year for the first time in 14 years.

[PeteU]

The crowds at New Yankee Stadium have to be the most dull and lifeless in all of baseball, hands down. It's really pathetic.

17,000 Rays fans at the Trop have ten times more energy and excitement than 45,000 Yankees fans sitting on their hands.

If this game were being played in Baltimore, it would be rocking, no doubt.

[PeteU]

Dupe post.

[Rene88]

Nothing makes me angrier than losing to the Yankees on the national stage! Fired up!

[rO'sesrfree]

When is the last regular season game Chen won or didn't blow it after 5-6 innings?
