Default Fox "Baseball Game of the Week"

Why bother televising baseball on "over-the-air" at all. Seems Fox has moved most of the games over to expensive cable tier FoxSports1.

Time for the World Series and All-Star game to go over too.

Why has America's past-time run so far away from me?? (sigh)

I was sad when I seen this. I am one of those cheap asses that does not have cable. I rarely watch TV so don't need a $50-$150 a month bill for something I hardly use. Oh well, I guess now I will hook up the lap top to the TV and stream it for free from Europe like I do other PPV sporting events.

Smoky and Ben, I totally agree. A "Game of the Week' used to mean something when there was only broadcast TV. Nowadays, everything is regionally and/or nationally marketed. That is a good thing. Recently. my cable bill shot up 2x. I am not willing to pay $150. I can get what I want via Internet. I just call my kid and ask where can I find... I just watch in on my laptop, not even hooked up to my ancient CRT TV.
