A few years back when I started listening to the FRS baseball games on the internet I complained that it was weird when between innings there was silence instead of the usual radio commercials. That was only the first year, ever since then I have been getting the Boston radio station’s local commercials. Normal.
Tonight the Sox are playing the Braves and the game is on something called the Peachtree TV. My local cable company doesn’t normally carry Peachtree, but because of the big Braves fan base they do show the baseball games on an open channel. I don’t know if it is contractual or what, but during inning breaks we don’t get commercials We get silence and sometimes a black screen, but mostly the video is of the infield and the silent tableau of players trotting to their position, which an occasional vertigo inducing zoom in to a close-up of the second base bag.
On radio it was weird, but on TV it is even weirder.
