HD MLB EI on channel 95

[NVBlue]

On Apr. 26th, the Marlins/Cubs game was shown on Ch. 95 in HD. The description indicated that it was MBL EI HD broadcast and may be blacked out in parts of Miami and Chicago. Since I live 2000 miles away from either city I presumed it was not blacked out for me. I have the HD package and the MLB EI package. I called the 800 number shown in the guide and asked if it blacked out in the 2 cities where the teams are located and it is not shown in the rest of the country, then why are they carrying the game.
It must have been a tough question because after 5 minutes they hung up on me. I called back and again they hung up on me. I called again and asked for a supervisor and they couldn't answer the question. Anybody out there know who is eligible to view the HD broadcast? I have never been able to get one of these games.

They don't have a clue. The Braves and Brewers were supposed to be on Tuesday night. The ch. listed had the Twins game on. You go to the listed ch. for the Twins and it is ALSO the Twins. My dad calls them and they act lact they don't have a clue. He FINALLY told them to go to ch X, now go to ch Y. NOW tell me why they BOTH have the same game when your channel guide says the Braves will be on ch X. OH!!!! Five minutes later they switch it.

D* is run by morons.

They answered and said the MLB HD games are only available to customers residing in your home team RSN. For me they say CSN west, FSN Bay area and FSN AZ (the last one I don't understand and is probably in error since I am at least 800 miles from PHX).
I did get the NBA game last night & tonight.

Live in NY and watching Phillies-Pirates game in HD on channel 95. Don't understand how I can get this game on 95 but can't get Met home games on SNY.

Cablevision carries all Met home games in HD on a dedicated channel.
