June 11, 200521 yr Miami/Fort Lauderdale: WSVN 7 West Palm Beach: WFLX 29 Cape Coral/Fort Myers: WFTX 36 Los Angeles: KTTV 11 Santa Barbara: KKFX 24 Confirmed using Zap2it Orlando's WOFL 35, Jacksonville's WAWS 30, Gainesville's WOGX 51, Tampa's WTVT 13, Tallahassee's WTLH 49, Mobile's WALA 10 and Panama City's WPGX 28 will air the Cubs-Yankees game. :thumbdown If you want to change that....I suggest calling your station on Monday morning and contacting the Program Director and Sports Director. Unfortunately this game got a small share of the national window, but I am told the next 2 Fish appearances on FOX would have them getting the largest windows. Want me to check your station? Just post it on here. Thanks!
June 11, 200521 yr It's sad that the PAX network reaches as people in Florida as your typical Fox game.
June 11, 200521 yr Author I don't get the PAX/Marlins TV Network, but I do get the FOX broadcast of this game. However, PAX is over after this season. FOX has regionalized games just like it does for its NFL coverage.
June 11, 200521 yr My sister is graduating high school that afternoon. I never get to see any god damn games :mad
June 11, 200521 yr Author Yay, I get the Yankmes. :plain 805630[/snapback] Call 407-741-5115 (WOFL Programming Dept.) and politely ask to speak to the person who decides the MLB on FOX game selections. Then ask them politely to change their minds and air the Marlins game. Those with DirecTV who live in the Tampa (WTVT), Orlando (WOFL), and Gainesville (WOGX) markets and have an HD box can call DirecTV and attempt to have FOX HD West (KTTV Los Angeles) added and attempt to get the game that way. I think going through your local FOX station is easier.
June 11, 200521 yr Author How about WJPR in Lynchburg/Roanoke VA? 805650[/snapback] Cubs-Yankees for you
June 16, 200521 yr Author No station changes during this week so far....of course the final list isn't out yet. I guess those of you in areas where your FOX station is not planning to air our game didn't make the phone calls.
June 16, 200521 yr Of course, Cubs-Yankees for me...arrgh. We need to start a New England Marlins fans movement to storm the network gates. If the Sox game isn't nationally televised (as it won't be Saturday), let's have the Fish be the #2 pick!
June 16, 200521 yr Author how about cape coral cape? :mischief 812445[/snapback] FOX 4 down on Pine Island Road is scheduled to air the game. :thumbup
June 16, 200521 yr how about cape coral cape? :mischief 812445[/snapback] FOX 4 down on Pine Island Road is scheduled to air the game. :thumbup 812448[/snapback] :thumbup

I guess those of you in areas where your FOX station is not planning to air our game didn't make the phone calls. 812427[/snapback] Hi, this is _____. Sure, despite DC hosting a NL East franchise and adopting the Orioles 30 years ago you see more Yankee and Cubs hats around, but I want to see my Marlins.
June 16, 200521 yr yea, luckely i get ALL the marlins games , even though i HATE it when that happens, luckely i will be able to see the game . YAY :thumbup
June 16, 200521 yr I watch all the marlin games on MLB.tv, in the UK, I never get blackouts becuase I live in the UK, even when they are on FOX. :dancing
June 16, 200521 yr Dont worry about it, when I lived in florida I never got to see the marlins becuase I was in a blackout area, now im watching more marlin games then ever before.
June 16, 200521 yr I lived on the west coast, in sarasota, Sunshine network used to show the marlins, up to about I think 1998, after that comcast would not provide FSN, 10 miles north of me another cable provider did show FSN florida, the only choice you had in sarasota was comcast. So from about 1998 to 2004 I could not watch one marlins game, unless they were playing the braves or the cubs /TBS/WGN. In 2004 I did some research and found out about Direct TV, I got that and started watching the marlins at last. I live in the UK now, so I watch the marlins on MLB.TV. the only problem with that ,is if you want to watch the marlins live, you have to stay up till 12:00 am UK time for the start of the game , becuase of the 5 hour time difference. When the marlins play in california tommorrow night, It will start at 3:00 am UK time, I dont think im doing that, so I will have to watch the archive the next day. Better then nothing.
June 16, 200521 yr Unless your a night cat, and like the night life, And I do, so its okay for me. Its great living over here, its just that time difference.
