I might miss the first couple of innings depending on when I get home from daughters cheerleading practice (hot and friggin muggy to be sitting outside)

Is it blacked out on Root?

If not, how about a poll?

What channel do you plan on watching the game on?

I'm watching on ESPN. I hear the Root guys all the time. It'll be a nice change to hear someone else and a different perspective.

... I'll be watching on-line from Tokyo... No ESPN or ROOT over here...

Gotta go get me my breakfast buffet first, as it's only 6:30 am here...

Usually, when a local team is on Root and a national channel, the national channel ends up getting blacked out locally. So, I would guess that ESPN will either get blacked out or they'll show something else on there in the Pittsburgh area. Root has the local rights, so they want you watching their channel obviously instead of another.

as of right now, Root is scheduled to show the game. Not sure if that will change or not

Well, at least you won't have to hear the ESPN announcers bring up the 92 NLCS 100 times during the broadcast.

That's true enough. I m sure they will show the video clip several times.

[BlackNGoldRules]

It wouldn't surprise me if they led off the broadcast with that clip.

Rain delay.

[BlackNGoldRules]

Rain delay.

Yeah, just checked out the radar and Atlanta has a pretty nasty looking storm moving through.
