Sports May 2, 2007 Jeff Passan Yahoo! Sports Now is the time to right a wrong. Though sometimes I wonder if that is asking too much of Major League Baseball. For the amount of hand-wringing it took to settle the Extra Innings-DirecTV brouhaha, I cringe to think how baseball will try to remedy a problem that affects millions of fans instead of thousands: The frustrating – and unnecessary – television blackouts. As an Iowan, I really hope they get something done. I do get the Cubs here, but I'd love to watch some other midwest teams on MLB.tv.[/b] (Edited by moderator for copyrighted material--posting entire article is against NSBB policy.)
