MLB.Tv and Blacked Out Games

Post by **Richard S.** » Sun. May. 08, 2016 3:21 pm

Looking to reduce the cable bill by eliminating it and have run into snafu here.

Anybody use this service? If I'm reading this correctly the local games are blacked out but you can watch them 90 minutes after they are over. Do they just have a big list of the previously played games you can watch?

You can probably find reddit streams of the games too . cost = zero

Hi Richard,

That's right the local games are blacked out but you can access them 90 mins on the Apple box after they are finished . They also have every games playing live or played that day outside your area available to watch immediately . You can play back any game during the entire season, too. We like the service. We never miss a Nats game and can play them back without playing the commercials. I suppose we could do the something with the DVR but I also follow the Braves which I couldn't do with the DVR. This is our third year with the service. Lisa

We've been using it for years.
Local is blacked out, but are archived 90 mins later. $120 a year.
We're NY fans and they don't broadcast them up here so thats the only way for us to see them. Becausee its not local, we get the feed live.
