Da Reds thread

Opening Day in the ‘Nati always feel optimistic then it usually goes downhill haha. One day I really hope to catch opening day in person.

Is the game not televised free today? I read an article that said it would be but it is not on any channels here locally in Knoxville.

I’m not sure but I signed up for the Reds TV option when it came out. Not doing much with the bats only hit was a double by Sal.

 

[Burhead]

Man Sal just got hit and hope he’s ok.

 

[Burhead]

Bases loaded no runs. Go to the pen and immediately gives up a run. Typical.

He’s the only one ok today. Lol

 

[Burhead]

He’s the only one ok today. Lol

Yeah just an all around terrible performance today except for Abbott and Sal.

 

[Burhead]

Added another vet lefty option not bad.

 

[Burhead]

All Sal does is hit kid is going to be special.

 

[Burhead]

TJ just looks slow in center so far.

 

[Burhead]

And this one belongs to the Reds! Got our first series win of the season out of the way. Story of the opening series is Big Sal: 7 for 10, 3 2Bs, a home run, 2 RBIs to go with 3 walks. Geno delivered the go ahead homer.

It should have been on this channel in Knoxville...as will more Reds games this year

Nice outing for Burns.

Yep. Going to be interesting to see what we get out of Williamson tomorrow after not pitching last year.

 

[Burhead]

I don’t know what happened to TJ but I think we see why we tried to get Luis Robert. He looks like he has just lost all his speed. I wonder how soon Hinds or Bleday are called up. Another thing Lowe is just taking up a roster spot. He isn’t spelling Stewart/Steer at 1B and he’s only had 2 ABs.

 

[Sea Ray]

Hinds hit a game winning HR last night in AAA. His numbers are off the chart incredible and he's played everyday in CF. He also tripled in the game and he's hitting .533

Lose a series to the Pirates. Same ole Reds. If Stewart is the only guy able to get on base, long season offensively.

It was not aired on that channel.

Interesting. Someone lied. If they're not on that channel on April 20 questions need to be asked. Emails should be sent

I read the article linked about the Reds broadcast in Knoxville. The Braves have a similar agreement where Gray Media associated stations broadcast some of the games during the season here in Georgia. I finally signed up for the BravesVision package which is on the MLB app. Got tired of not seeing baseball the last few years. The Reds offer a similar package.

I think the Reds.tv package is only available if you live in their blackout area. Furthermore, if you're also in the Braves blackout area, your hundred bucks to Reds.tv will NOT get you Reds games vs the Braves. This is BS. MLB needs to fix this

I think I’m in 3 blackout areas in W TN. Braves, Reds, Cards.

That sucks. MLB has to do something about that. Why should you have to pay 100s of dollars to get all MLB games whereas some people pay one fee or in the case of T Mobile folks, pay nothing. If you're a T Mobile customer living in Hawaii I imagine you'd get your MLB.tv package for free and have no blackouts. The NFL Sunday Ticket doesn't play this blackout game

Personally I live in Cincinnati so I get the Reds thru Spectrum and MLB through T Mobile. I don't pay anything extra

You are correct about the availability. I know with the Braves you can combine their package and MLB.tv for $199. I assume the Reds and other teams have a similar option. Of course if you live in 2 blackout areas that is a problem if you want to watch both without paying a fortune. It sucks that you can’t just pay $99 and get all the games.

Braves.tv is available on some services and cable providers for free. I have YouTube TV which doesn’t currently offer the BravesVision package. I suspect they may at some point since FUBO is carrying it.
