In Seattle, Washington, the Atlanta Braves faced off against the Mariners in a crucial series finale. Max Fried was on the mound for the Braves, but Comcast Xfinity customers in Georgia were unable to watch the game due to a blackout of Bally Sports Regional Networks, which broadcasts most Braves games. The blackout occurred because of failed negotiations between Comcast and Bally Sports.
Fans were disappointed as this blackout came at a particularly inconvenient time, with the team needing to secure a win to avoid being swept by the Mariners. Unfortunately, the blackout also affected upcoming games, including a three-game series against the Dodgers starting Friday through Sunday. These games will also be broadcasted on Bally Sports.
However, Comcast has stated that they will provide refunds to customers affected by the blackout. For those looking to watch Braves games without interruption, Bally Sports South and Bally Sports Southeast are available on DirecTV STREAM and FUBO live streaming services. Games can also be streamed on BallySports.com and the Bally Sports app by signing in with a TV provider username and password. More information on how to access Braves games can be found on the Braves website.
The unfortunate blackout has left fans frustrated but there are other options available for them to catch their favorite team’s game.
