Playing in Japan, so the game started at 6:05am Boston time. I get up, flip on the TV and I get “Searching for satellite signal”. WTF! Most channels working fine, but NESN is DOA.
GRRRRR!!!!
It’s not just me….
DirecTV, out? - Extra Bases - Red Sox blog
Hey DirecTV, Get it sorted! I expect a freakin’ refund this month!!!
UPDATE: Service restored in the 8th inning. Call Feinstein & Forlizi - get the class action suit cooking!
UPDATE #2: Sox Win! Well on their way to a 162-0 record!

How strange that you couldn’t watch in Boston but I could in Guyana. MLB.TV is a miracle IMHO. Be thankful you were spared watching that excruciating performance by Dice-K! I had to leave for work at 8 so I am now stuck with just the occassional glance at Yahoo for the score (it’s not looking good)

You should be happy you missed the early innings. My alarm sounded at 5:55 as planned, ESPNII working as expected.
Just in time to have Dice-K remind me how CRAZY he drove me in 2007. Throw a strike!
Oh, the other thing you missed was Gary Thorne’s special Tokyo Dome “Sayonara!” homerun call in the first inning.
Bet he’d been waiting to use that for weeks.

Sorry your post got tagged as spam Sis. I sorted that. Glad you got to see some of the game, and hopefully tomorrow morning Lester can provide better breakfast entertainment!!
