I missed a Waino gem AND there were no commercials? Damn you, Diablo. For more reasons than this. |

The Dodgers-Diamondbacks game had the same problems. The feed would disappear leading to a "Technical Difficulties" graphic. There were no commercials (you just heard the sounds of the ballpark in those situations). At one point, AZ viewers got switched to the LA feed. Of course, that meant we were treated to some Vin Scully which even this Dodger hater can appreciate. |

| IAmRight Baseball fans are too dumb to figure out when an inning is over without commercials? |

The clients who bought advertising time in that game have to be mighty pissed... |

This happened during the Rangers game as well. I turned in late and thought something notable had happened, and they were sticking with the game until it got sorted out. Then they started playing and it took me a bit to figure out that there were no commercials. |

| Donnchadha It's baseball. It's not like there's non-stop action if it weren't for commercial breaks. I'm sure you could easily take a whiz, get a beer and cook a steak mid inning while not missing anything. |

This happened during the Astros/Cubs game on Monday. It was chock full of awesome. |

Now, if only the main Fox network could do the same this coming Sunday evening. |

good_2_go: Now, if only the main Fox network could do the same this coming Sunday evening. That's why I'm glad to have Directv Hotpass. I can keep up with what's going on during those ads. Of course, I knew Junior ran out of gas 10 seconds before anyone who wasn't watching that feed did. |
