Need help hearing the Red Sox game
I don't have FX and I can't find the game on any of the local sports radio stations. Does anybody know anywhere that they're streaming the game (audio or video) on the net?

Help.

1. mlb.com streams the audio but you have to pay for it
other than that there isnt much you can do since they don't allow the stations which broadcast to stream the games.

2. Bummer-WEEI (Boston) and WCBS (NY) Don't Stream
I have Fox muted with WEEI on-the Fox announcers are so biased against the SOX!

5. She's in Texas, I think.
I can get WCBS in Boston, but I doubt she can get it in TExas!

7. I can get WCBS here in Maine - at night
But I can't get a station 25 miles away. Go figure.

8. has to do with the ionization of the atmosphere
and how AM waves are affected. The signal can bounce off a high layer (troposhpere?) and make it all the way "down east" :hi: late evening is the best time for this to occur. The 50,000 watt stations like CBS, TIC in Hartford (they used to carry Sox games BTW) and WBZ in Boston can do this too.
Anyway..... GO SOX!!!
