Any Comcast MLB-EI subscribers from the Indy area here?

[Tenacious-D]

I seem to be stuck in a Twilight Zone - I live just south of Indianapolis (46143) and I tried to order the MLB-Extra Innings package from Comcast last night. I have their digital cable and Fox Sports Net MidWest is blacked out so I don't get the Cards.

They warned me that I would not get St. Louis Cardinals games because I'm in their home market - yet when I've looked it up I'm only in the home market of the Reds/Cubs/Sox and not the Cards.

I spoke with a Comcast supervisor also and he confirmed that they blackout out Cardinals games on MLB-EI AND the regular cable channels through FSNMW.

So, are any of you from my market, with Comcast and MLB-EI that can confirm that the Cards are indeed blacked out? Also, does anyone know why?

Thanks,
Ten-D

You should post this in the "MLB Schedules" Sticky Thread. Mike's on top of schedule conflicts or anomalies.

Just checked out the blackouts page on MLB EI, you should be getting Cards through EI not FSN MW.
