Um, what? (Cubs on CSN tonight)

Does the baseball pay-per-view package carry the CSN games?

Yes it does. I get Extra Innings through DirecTV and they did have quite a few CSN broadcasts last year.

Thanks for the info NC, Im deffinantly going to get extra innings this year then.

Isn't there some way to get around the MLB.tv blackout, I think there was a thread on it but with search disabled I have no idea where to start looking.

 

I really want to get MLB.tv as i'm in Chicago and don't get Comcast, and I also want to follow a couple of other teams a little closer

 

you need a proxy - i think it needs to support a secure connection, as well.

[anemic offense]

Yes it's true. I have looked into it before. I am a local market for many teams. Since I am about 5 hours from a lot of major cities in the midwest. I live and die by the Cubs but kinda like the Twins (My American League team) so I wanted to see if I could watch them on MLB TV. Getting the Cubs where I live has never been a problem.

 

Do you get CSC in Janesville??? I'm orginally from Greene and they get FSN North on cable (although I believe Direct tv includes CSC as their "local" sports channel).

It's worth it. Between Extra Innings and WGN the vast majority of games are available (although sometimes with the other team's broadcast).

It's Wood's return in late June at Wrigley. I was at that one. :) Cubs win it 3-2 on a Todd Hollandsworth single in the 9th.

Wait, isn't the Bulls game on CSN at 6?

Yes I do. Mediacom started offering it last April just in time for Baseball season.

No, the Cubs game is definitely on CSN at 7pm. Looks like the Bulls are on TNT tonight.

Quintessential Kerry Wood moment: pitches great for 6 innings, gets the crowd pumped up, and then the bullpen (Rusch in this game) takes exactly two pitches to blow the lead.

 

My friends make fun of me about this game because if you watch the highlight of Overbay's home run, you can see me reaching futilely with my glove over my friend's head to try to catch the ball which was two or three rows behind us.
