I have to admit these baseball media territories confuse me... We are about 20 miles north of Hartford, CT and can only get NESN with our "expanded digital" Cox Communications cable, yet the same cable system carries both NESN and YES in the Hartford area.
My stepson lives in Los Angeles... he and his roommates have some MLB satellite package (I don't know which one). He's an Oakland A's fan, but he sometimes watches Red Sox games on NESN (including all the local MA-RI-CT commercials - businesses he will never patronize as he's 3,000 miles away).
when the Sox are on the road MLB shows the other team's broadcast.
Don't ask me why...
here in florida its nesn through mlb on dish network
