I do not know if WFXT is involved as of yet but some FOX outlets will
be showing all 3 regional MLB games tomorrow by using their DT
subchannels. The FOX blackouts of regional games has been frustrating
to fans who bought Extra Innings but until now FOX has stated they
must protect local ad sales.

 ABC was doing this for college football last fall but of course most
viewers had no idea as cable companies were not picking up the
subchannels.

Will be interesting to see if this catches on.
