It's hard to believe how fragile one 'device' can be to a program.
Did the following message happen?
In place of the game, TBS had televised an episode of "The Steve Harvey Show." A crawl on the screen ran repeatedly, saying: "We are experiencing technical difficulties."
I also found this quote kind of funny.
At the Cask N Flagon outside Fenway Park "People were in a little uproar because they thought we didn't put the game on. They were just screaming at us to put it on and try all the other stations -- Fox, TNT," Fusco said.
Finally, Fusco said the staff had to use a PA system to explain the technical problems to the capacity crowd of 700.
Some customers yelled for them to at least put the game on the radio, but the bar didn't have one.
"People watched 'Steve Harvey' until it came on," Fusco said.
