Players making their Mlb debut will now be wearing a special patch on their jersey

 

[DJnVa]

Ah, opening day. And since the Sox are playing the Orioles I can't watch on MLB.TV even though I don't have cable and have no way to watch the O's home broadcast.

Same situation here in NC. And the O’s regional network isn’t even available here with cable.

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Sox v. O's is the "Free Game of the Day".

No NESN at my Metrowest hotel means I will be using that Free Game if the Day trick or camping out at Margarita’s down the street while I “work” remotely.

Waltham or Nat-Fram?

I can't remember how this works. Is the blackout still in effect for these?

 

[Lose Remerswaal]

Waltham wishes it could be Metrowest. I can see The Natick Collection from my window

Likely, but I don't know for sure. VPNs are your friend.

I guess I should look into a VPN. I'm sure there's a thread here somewhere, but what is the best option that won't break the bank? I've been living off pirate streams for years when the Sox are playing Baltimore, Washington, Atlanta or Cincinnati.

 

[DJnVa]

Right now it’s telling me the Yankees/Giants game is blacked out. WTH?

I signed up for NordVPN a few minutes ago and I'm still blacked out of Braves-Nationals. I've tried multiple servers in multiple countries and not having any luck.

EDIT: I deleted and reinstalled MLB.tv on my phone and it seems to be working fine now.

 

[trekfan55]

I hate the Yankees and I hate most Yankee fans (sorry jonabbey/Wingack et al, there are exceptions) but I have to admit the roll call is cool.

 

[jon abbey]

I also hate most Yankee fans, which is why I’m here and not on a Yankee site.

 

[BaseballJones]

Cole already in midseason form.

 

[Jim Ed Rice in HOF]

Cole already in midseason form.

Fuck me, so is Judge.

 

[Red(s)HawksFan]

Judge starting up right where he left off, I see.

 

[BornToRun]

Judge starting up right where he left off, I see.

Being an ugly asshole?

 

[Ale Xander]

ESPN (regular) doesn’t have a game until 7?
Lame

 

[Just a bit outside]

Already two bullshit ball/strike calls in the Yankees favor.

 

[ifmanis5]

Hurts a little extra on the call when you hear "Yastrzemski going back."

[Jim Ed Rice in HOF]

A Stantonian K to start the season.

 

[LogansDad]

The Braves are so, so good. No runs off Corbin yet, but it's only a matter of time. Just a relentless lineup.

 

[LogansDad]

And just like that... 1-0 Atlanta.

 

[Just a bit outside]

The Braves are so, so good. No runs off Corbin yet, but it's only a matter of time. Just a relentless lineup.

There is the first one. Biggest mismatch of the day.

EDIT: I deleted and reinstalled MLB.tv on my phone and it seems to be working fine now.

And I am not blacked out from the Nats game. Weird.

 

[Mr. Stinky Esq.]

Corbin is gonna have a bad time today.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Corbin is gonna have a bad time today.

SS kicking a double play ball cost him 2 runs that inning.

 

[BornToRun]

Corbin is gonna have a bad time today.

Not as bad as the guys having to sign his paychecks.

 

[bosox188]

The Braves are so, so good. No runs off Corbin yet, but it's only a matter of time. Just a relentless lineup.

They are, but Corbin is also a trainwreck.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Braves giving some back with some horrid fielding.

 

[Red(s)HawksFan]

How's that big spending going for the Mets? Not so hot.

I actually like the Mets but, yeah, LOLMets

Mighty fine of them to announce that right after fantasy rosters lock for the week. Off to a fantastic start!

 

[Bozo Texino]

Cole with 8 Ks through three.

 

[Mr. Stinky Esq.]

The Mets are cursed.

 

[Mr. Stinky Esq.]

The Mets are cursed.

I'm envisioning deGrom staying healthy and Verlander on the IL all year

 

[Just a bit outside]

Sun is wreaking havoc in the Braves/Nats game. 2 balls already missed and one barely caught on the dive because player couldn’t see it.

 

[patinorange]

I hate Volpe already. In the ESPN hall of fame after one AB.

 

[LogansDad]

Cole is going to K 25 today.

 

[Bozo Texino]

Cole now up to ten K's through four.

Spider Tack futures BUY BUY BUY

 

[Red(s)HawksFan]

Cole is going to K 25 today.

More balls in play! Exciting baseball!

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

More balls in play! Exciting baseball!

19 K’s through 4. Wow

 

[LogansDad]

Fried just got pulled after making a play at first base, looked like a hamstring.

 

[Catcher Block]

He's on the IL, but Adam Wainwright still managed to play today....he sung the National Anthem. (Wasn't half bad either.)

 

[Sad Sam Jones]

It certainly wasn't the worst performance by an athlete, but it wasn't good.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Back to back triples for the Phillies off DeGrom. 4 ebh against him.

 

[bosox188]

Oneil Cruz turned on a 101mph fastball from Hunter Greene and just annihilated it.
