Is anyone else not getting the Reds games? I haven't gotten one since Friday, and am not getting one tonight either.

Aren't they off tonight?

nate · 09-21-2009, 06:54 PM

BTW, I had games over the weekend. One wasn't on because of a football game.

Oh man. I never looked at the date. Yes, they are off tonight. Thank you.

They still didn't air the last two games though. I didn't know football trumped baseball at this stage of the season.

The games weren't on this weekend unless you could get Marlins broadcast.

Dont know if it was originally scheduled; but yes UC vs. Oregon St. on Saturday nite and a tape delay (!) of a Wyoming vs. Idaho (I believe) game on Sunday were shown instead of Reds baseball---the UC game I understand---the Sunday schedule I dont..

I had the same problem last October, after the playoffs started. 'didn't get a single Reds game for the rest of the month

After the playoffs started, I didn't get a Reds game until March of the following year, but that's been an ongoing problem since 1995.

It might have to do with the availability of production trucks and personnel. There's a finite number of both, and all of the crews and trucks near Cincinnati may have been committed to football.

According to the schedule that came out at the beginning of the year the game on Sunday was never part of the TV schedule. However it does list Saturday's game vs the Marlins to be televised at 7:10pm, so it seems like the success of the Bearcats forced the Reds off the tube. Maybe that's not a bad thing. If the Reds were better and in a pennant race they might stand more of a chance

I have Directv. The Reds were on Fox Sports Ohio channel 660, The Bearcats were on Fox Sports Cincinnati channel 661.
