So has anyone gotten mlb.tv?

I was just looking at it. It seems that both the Orioles and Nationals are blacked out here, but somehow not the Braves.

And then there’s the “premium” version…but maybe neither will work on linux, anyway.

but haven’t been able to watch any of the games because the mets are blacked-out here.

1 win not too great. But that is more base-clogging that I expected especially when you consider opening day.

Yeah, I'm really impressed with the amount of walks that we're taking

Seems like our starters are giving up a bunch too (and Lefty Smurf), so that’s less thrilling, but hey, offense!
