OTOH, I was blacked out of Braves-Cats by MLBN, since I've yet to flee to Mississippi or wherever and so remain "local" to Atlanta, a mere 310 km away. A sneeze, I tell you! I can smell the Falcons from here!
This meant that I was pushed to the alter-Nate channel, where various people named Nate watched 'dians-Twinkies. Alas, that game didn't start until 2 PM ET, so by the time the Tribe had picked up their W, we were already showing Mets-Nats on the regular channel, and they kept me locked on the other ("Regional Coverage is Blacked Out on this Channel") and just fed me the ****ing Lindor documentary, "Behind the Smile". Personally, I don't need to see Frankie's behind smile at me…
Took them over an hour to correct the fork-up. We now join Terrible Mets Baseball in the top of the 8th, with Dickie Lovelady on the mound, who presumably doesn't smile at Lindor's behind, either. Sheesh.
