Sat on fox, and now Sundays on TBS. I like it. Though Warriors/Honets is a better game to watch right now.
|
I didn't know they broadcast AL games. I know they do NL playoff games.
|
I didn't know that either...and I know everything

I'd be pissed If I was a Braves fan though and not able to get the game...

Yea, no doubt. They probably show them on "Turner South" |
Atlanta's days of automatic national audience are over.
Last year was the final year of TBS's contract with the Braves. Also, Turner South is gone. Braves games are now shown on Fox Sports South and a new channel called Peachtree TV. I know all this shit because my wife is a huge Braves fan. We have the MLB Extra Innings package through DirecTV, so with the exception of Saturdays when the pricks at Fox block every game except the one being shown on their local channel, we still get everything. But the way we do it is now the only way. DTV's monopoly on national baseball coverage is all but complete. Just like football. Shouldn't be allowed, but it is. |
I ordered the first month of the season online using the MLBTV. The quality is pretty damned good for it being streamed.
And yes, DTV dominates the sports world. |

Also, what if you have cable or dish and you order the sports packages like FOX Sports (whatever region)?? Would you still get most of the MLB games? Or do they black them out now?? |

Don't have cable or Dish, so I don't know what they offer. |
I think it was kind of bullcrap that a single team had a contract with a network to show just their games. I got tired of watching TBS and seeing commercials for the Braves.

Sunday games are the only games that the Cardinals allow on their network. 20 games, the rest have to be paid for. If they show a game on ESPN that is on Fox Sports Midwest then DirectTV will block it. What kind of crap is that? Didn't ESPN pay for the rights to show that game? Don't I pay DirectTV to show ESPN?
