MLB Extra Innings FREE PREVIEW April 1-7

[Mr Tony]

Hadnt seen anything on it but I assume there is a MLB EI freeview for a couple weeks (so we can see each teams home opener) like previous years?

 

[Jimbo]

This is the ONLY thing I have seen as of yet for D* and the Freeview, but I'd say that it is enough, seeing it comes from thier website, but had to search to find it, for some reason they are not Advertising it, letting people know ... there was a blip on the Messages from the recvrs, about the season ready to start but didn't mention anything about the freeview either.

Check at the bottom of the page here:

It's a rolling add at the bottom as it was something different the next time I went there, but it did show the EI package being free, didn't catch how long.

According to channel 113 Apr. 1-7.

There ya go ...

Glad someone was able to find it on the system, you'd think they would have it on the website as well, easily accessible, if they wanted to have people tune in to it.

Channels 720-749

719 is the strike zone channel as well ... wonder if they will have that active for the freeview too.
They should, so people can see it, but I don't think they did last year either.

I ended up seeing it on the banner between 204 & 206 too......odd its only 1-7 as some teams have their opener on the 8th

Really wanted to see Miami's opener on the 8th......to see the "crowd" there

Under / Over 20,000 ...

Games after the home opener .... 15,000 and under ?

 

[Mr Tony]

Under / Over 20,000 ...

well lets see...with the BOGO offer and the groupon thing they're doing for the home opener I'll say over...barely

Games after the home opener .... 15,000 and under ?

UNDER
Hell if you said 10K that might be more a realistic bet

Thanks for the info on this. I was getting a little nervous since I'd not seen a message yet on my receiver.
I never start my MLB.TV month-by-month subscription until the free opening week is over.

ESPN2 + This free trial - FSS = No Braves game anywhere

I think we get the same card without a EI trial.

huh? Watching the Braves right now via FS South

 

[John84]

^Yeah just speaking personally.. without regional, & Braves going entirely to the two regionals this year..

Can't watch em on ESPN, TBS on blackouts.
et tu, TBS??

 

[John84]

Got tonight's on Game Mix though.

oh I get it now...you're on a package that doesnt get RSN's
Since you're in market you are blacked out on ESPN2

 

[Mr Tony]

Why no SNET feeds for the Jays?
I know last year they had them

I just checked to see if SNET was on MLB.TV and it is. So SNET is broadcasting the game. EI is not not carrying it.

Yeah as far as I can tell MLB.tv carries every feed. That includes OTA and all RSNs including SNET. In the couple years I have been using it I have never had a feed not be available except for the normal blackout rules.

I imagine it is bandwidth related. Once NBA/NHL slow down I would expect it back. Will be a bit tougher to manage with the NHL extra-heavy schedule and running a month longer than usual.

 

[DodgerKing]

Since we all are getting EI this week, turn it to 725 / 725-1 to see something special going on now.
