It was an incredible game. Never seen something like this in a regular season game. Classic game. Hope to see it one day in HD. Yes has been recording these games in HD as a test.
I do not get this. Baseball tonight is in St. Lois tonight on the road. The game is in HD why the heck not do baseball tonight in HD. It seems like the logical thing to do but no...
It sucks being in the Chicago area when the Cubs are on ESPN in HD because it gets blacked out..!!! I am Pi$$ed!
YOU HAVE NO FREAKING IDEA HOW PISSED I AM ... IT SAYS THE MARLIN GAME IS BLACKED THE F*** OUT!!! What burns my ass is my folks, in laws, and friends with D* and E* are SITTING IN THEIR HOUSES WATCHING THE GAME HERE IN MY AREA...
How can this be we don't have regional sports network fudge man, thje Voom CSR says its not his fault that they dont want to blackout games but the channel agreement with ESPN and the MLB is that the game isn't to be shown in a certain area... but I'm livid on the phone, how can DirectTV and Dish blatently ignore that blackout if there is one in effect.

I wonder why is not blocked in E* or D*. It is not a national game and ESPN does not rights to it nationally.
I have no idea if it's blacked out for Voom and local channels, then it should be blacked out for D* and E* ... you have no idea why I am so freaking pissed... This is insane for a nationally broadcast game to be blacked out in this area anyway. Now all the crackheads in this area with a DirectTV dish and a 18" television with syrup spilled all over it, but the sucker with the nice HDTV and Voom is hanging out with a baseball glove shoved 8' inches up his colon. What's up with that?
Dvlos,
It is not a nationally broadcast game. The only national broadcast game is on Sunday. Obviously this is a mistake on E* or D*.

What could have happened in my opinion, is that ESPN and the Marlins organization agreed on a blackout, all the networks in the local area especially PAX which usually broadcasts Marlins home games, as well as Voom, honored this agreement. However E* and D* just let it slide, or had no desire to sit there and block all the STBs in the South Florida area for this game. I think ESPN and ESPNHD should pull away from D* and E* and be a VOOM exclusive.
I didn't care who won, but...
That game looked INCREDIBLE in HD!!!! :shocked :shocked
Super Clear, Sharp, and the Cardinals catcher's red gear was POPPING off the screen at me!!
Damn.
