I flipped over to ESPN2 in the top of the 10th and the blackout was lifted. That seems to happen a lot with extra inning games.....

NESN-HD is showing it on cable in Vermont. I've seen better HD but it's not bad - still better than analog.

I think it was on NESNHD right along up here. At least back when I checked and it was 4-4.

I believe the telecast is scheduled for 3 hours and after that time the black out is lifted. I always root for a lot of pitching changes on those games!

If you subscribe to the multisports package, this happends on a constant basis.

That's kind of the point. Game was on NESN-HD which we can't get on DISH. Hopefully "Soon" we will. If it's not on by March 31, I might have to sub to Comcast's $29.99 per mo/ 6 month offer they've been advertising. Can kick em' to the curb when (if?) DISH ever makes NESN-HD available. Comcast's best feature is no commitment.

I meant that it wasn't being blacked out up here in Vt

I heard Dish might have it soon - real soon.
