DirecTV MLB Extra Innings Package

Finally! ESPN gave up (or lost) its Wednesday night exclusive deal, so we won't be blacked out on Wednesdays anymore. We used to only get up to 35 games a week; now it's up to 60, which I hope means Saturday nights are full as well.

SCORE!

Oh goody!! That's great news... baseball has long had the WORST pay TV package of any sport because of the abundance of blackout nights. I would guess Saturday afternoons are still going to be blacked out beginning in June, though, but hopefully I'm wrong.

What does mean for MLB.tv on mlb.com?

Ksyrup,

The Wednesday night exclusive changed, middle of last season. I agree great news.

I'm a 2nd year customer, and one of my favorite days of the year is when they release the schedule of games they're going to cover. Always seems to take so long :(

Did they raise the cost of the package because of this?

If you live in the UK, none of the MLB.tv games are blacked out :)
