5/20: Cubs (Demp) at Cards (Carpenter); 7:15 pm CT, CSN/ESPN

[SouthSideRyan]

Awesome another Cards game blacked out on ESPN but on CSN which isn't a standard cable channel for much of Indiana. Can't wait to move to New Orleans and no longer be subject to the black out rules.

 

New Orleans is not some magical location that isn't have blackout rules: MLB has them marked as a Houston/Texas market.

I'm in New Orleans -- I don't remember the last time there was a Cubs/Astros game on ESPN, but when WGN's not broadcasting the game, they always show it here on the Astros network, FSN. I'm certainly not a fan of the Astros, but I love it when they play the Cubs, because I'm pretty much assured of seeing those games.

Yeah I'm going to have MLB.tv so I should be able to watch every game as long as I'm not work. I'm also going to try and find a bar that is either big into MLB or is Cubs fan hangout.

You can probably Google things like that.

It looks like ESPN isn't going to be blacked out.

I drove past Busch Stadium around 1400 this afternoon, and they still had the linescore up on the scoreboard from last night's game. I wonder if they would have left it up had the CUBS won last night ??

It always happens to me when they send it to the announcers to start the quick pregame.

[CubbieBum]

Well its still on during the pregame so I guess we aren't blacked out for whatever reason. Gives we something to watch while I go workout.

[Fred Hornkohl]

S.S.D.D., eh?

[Fred Hornkohl]

How does that work ? .... he get's to be on base, but he didn't get a hit ??

[erik316wttn]

Come on, Milt.

[erik316wttn]

Dangit.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 10-2 when they score in the first inning.... 11-14 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 11-10 when they wear their pinstripes / road grays.... 10-6 when they wear alternate blues

This is the 6th game that the CUBS have worn their pinstripes / road grays.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 14-10 when they don't allow any first inning runs.... 7-6 when they do

 

 

Go CUBS !!
