MLB Extra Innings Features
Now you can follow your favorite Major League Baseball teams and players with MLB Extra Innings. Catch up to 60 regular-season, out-of-market Major League Baseball games each week. If you live in a zip code that is within a Major League Baseball team’s territory, that team’s games will be blacked out from the MLB Extra Innings game package, but will generally be available as part of your local regional sports, cable or over-the-air affiliate station. Blackouts protect the local rights holders who arrange separate distribution agreements for their exclusive territories. ESPN Blackout Information
ESPN has an exclusive national broadcast window for all Major League Baseball games on Sunday nights; therefore, no telecast can be made available for DBS distribution. As they have rights to night games only, any games which start after 5 p.m. ET (2 p.m. PT) cannot be distributed via DBS carriers out-of-market. Fox Television Network Blackout Information
For Saturdays in the regular season between May 21 and October 1, with the exception of September 3 and 10, the FOX Television Network has the exclusive national rights to broadcast games up until 7 pm ET (4 pm PT). So, while you will not receive Major League Baseball games on your MLB Extra Innings channels any of those Saturday mornings or afternoons, you will receive the available Saturday night games that begin after 7 pm ET (4 pm PT). For Saturday morning and afternoon games, check out the FOX Network local schedule.
