Bad news for people with cable tv who have enjoyed watching the Red Sox on the MLB Extra Innings package ( or those of us in New England who kept an eye on the Yankees.
The NY TImes is reporting that MLB will sign an EXCLUSIVE agreement with DirecTV to carry the channel. This is similar to the deal the NFL has with the Sunday Ticket package which has never been made available to cable households.
I know quite a few Bostonians who are stuck in Manhattan and Chicago where satellite is not an option because they live in apartments but have enjoyed watching the Sox on the MLB pay channel.
If this affects you the first thing you must do on Monday is call or write Bud Selig's office in Milwaukee
