MLB Extra Innings

Saturday, Jul. 27, 2019 - 3:18 p.m.

When MLB Extra Innings kept joining the Dodger games in progress during Vin Scully's final broadcast year (so we'd miss "It's time for Dodger Baseball"), this was egregious.

When they added informercials, this was annoying but understandable.

But NOW they've removed the local advertisements from the local feeds and replaced it with floggings of their own products and this is too much.

What's next? Outsourced foreign computer simulations instead of the real games so they can save even more money?

The entire point of regional coverage is to, oh I don't know, actually provide regional coverage, maybe?

I won't be back unless the local ads are included in my purchase price.
