Here is a link to a Youtube photo show I put together of the Reds last game in Sarasota a few years back.

Last Saturday at Progressive Field. Sad day for Reds' fans. Sad weekend for Reds' fans. Ohioboy, however, is an Indians fan, so he was fine.

However, there is always the next series (or perhaps the one after). Love those Reds, though.

Since this thread has been rejuvenated I can report that I followed thru on my threat above and have first base box seat tickets for the Jul 24th game, with my wife who dispises baseball, and my daughter and her husband. A pre and post Gold Star should top the day.

Ok, so where do you watch Reds games? We are fans.

[Ohiogirl]

Probably you could watch them at a Beef O'Brady's, but have not checked. Call and ask if they have MLB package and also Fox Sports Ohio (Cincinnati), or just make sure they can show Reds games. I think if they have the MLB package they can get most teams, although there are some blackouts, I think.

We got Directv last fall, with an added Sports package (12.99/mo - I think - after the initial few months at 5.99 or something like that). Our Sports package has STO (Sports Time Ohio) for the Indians and Fox Sports Ohio (FSO) for the Reds.

We thought that would do it, because in Ohio we have those channels and don't have to get the MLB package.

Well, they block the games out in Florida (except for the teaser first 10 days of the season), have to purchase the MLB package. There are also some other things on the Sports package, and interestingly enough, we get the pre and post game stuff on STO for the Indians, but not on FSO. No idea why.

Since we are still snowbirds we didn't get MLB but if we end up spending most of the summers in Florida, we will. It's not nearly as much as the NFL Ticket.

Their stock just went down after last night. They had it won in the 10th and gave up a home run!

What a tough loss. A six hour marathon that lasted 19 innings!!!!

Have you thought about just adding FoxSpFla which is channel 654 and Sun which is 653. Sun carries the American league games(Rays) and FxFl carries the National League games (Marlins)/

We get those stations but it's not enough for Ohioboy. For him, just getting the STO pre and post game, and all the other sports talk shows, etc., and Ohio High School football stuff in the fall, is worth the 12.99/mo fee.

Channel 654 should carry the Reds games vs Marlins and channel 653 should carry the Indians games vs Rays and your Ohio sports channels should televise the rest, correct?

I wondered about your screen name. Did you borrow it from Marge's dog?

We buy the MLB internet feed radio broadcast of all baseball team games. It is $19.99 to listen to any team - but - we just listen to the Reds. There is just something about listening to Marty - and love listening to The Cowboy.
Go to MLB.com - and you can purchase the radio feed.

We love it.

You don't get anything except the Marlins and Rays unless you pay the premium for MLB - then I think you get them all - you can't just pay less and get "your" team - at least that's how I understand it.

Ok, I think I finally see what you are saying. I don't have the MLB Package either but my package does include the MLB Channel(213). I am a Braves fan ans see very few of their games since my package does not include Sports South where most of their games are televised.
