What is that, Astros/Rangers/Royals/Cards? That's outrageous. The retarded blackout zones have been in sore need of fixing for a long time. It's 2008 -- this should not be difficult. If you get the games locally, they're blacked out. Otherwise, not. The NBA figured this out about a decade ago, as League Pass has always worked pretty smoothly in this regard. As on many other issues, MLB is perpetually clueless.
It's even worse in other areas -- Vegas most famously, with SIX teams blacked out.
That said, with only two blacked out teams for me, I always thought the EI package was a tremendous value for 160 bucks. I absolutely wear it out. And it's really improved in the last few years, now probably covering 95% of games played (except for the stupid Fox Saturday afternoon blackouts).
