I am pretty sure BA mentioned it would be in St. Louis. Yes a one game playoff would be in St. Louis. Instead of doing a coin flip like they've done in the past, they now go by season record according this article on the MLB website: http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20110926&content_id=25220606&vkey=news_mlb&c_id=mlb

I think it will be in the Milwaukee area. As I recall, a Brewers game in San Francisco earlier this season was blacked out. And I recall seeing an MLB Network promo for a White Sox at Reds game that said it would be blacked out in the White Sox home market so I'm thinking that also means a blackout tonight in Milwaukee.

I appreciate this post! It made me laugh and is lifting my surly mood (as are the Brewers, so far). Did you see Benjie Molina almost get run over by the Sausages? That sure made me laugh http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif.

Yep and now an added bonus is never having to hear Brian Anderson say that Prince has never hit a Grand Slam in his career http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif.

They just showed the Brant Brown play on MLB Network.

Yeah I thought he looked out when I watched it live and the replay confirmed that. Oh well http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif.

I had looked during the first inning and they had some sort of racing on...at least that is what I thought I saw, but now they have the game. I had the game on ESPN starting right at 7p - I almost didn't check there as I expected a blackout. I like to listen to other broadcasters' take on the game sometimes so I've stuck with ESPN.

I thought the broadcast on ESPN was usually blacked out when the game was on FS Wisconsin. Obviously that's not the case tonight though as I'm getting the game on ESPN. What is the blackout rule?

Very worried at this point.

None of Friday's stats count - this game started over completely. ETA: - I'm not sure of the exact rule - think it may have something to do with it not being an official game before it was postponed and that's why the game starts over.

But Houston pulls it out http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif.

It sounds great http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif.

I went and checked my TV in the kitchen which has regular cable after you posted this and yeah I don't have the game on FS Wisconsin there but I do have it on FS Wisconsin on my TV with digital cable.

Strange, I have TWC and they have beach volleyball on FS (the info thing says MLB baseball...but they always have that wrong when the game is on WMLW). That is odd - wonder why I have it on FS Wisconsin. I have flipped over to WMLW now anyway and it's the same feed so I guess it doesn't really matter anyway.

And yet when I explained people on cable were able to watch in Eau Claire, DTV claimed that "anyone showing the game was breaking the law" (At least they confirmed I was under no contractual obligation to stay with them) I have the game on WMLW and FS Wisconsin in Milwaukee - Time Warner. I know it's only supposed to be on WMLW though - I just discovered it was on FS Wisconsin when I flipped to that channel out of habit.
