If it was that, I'm sure they would have already tweeted that. There are some
Pissed off people on their social media.

I'm from NB, learning French was a necessity. I watch RDS pretty frequently. It's a great channel.

I have Shaw, but no 905. Pubs probably won't be showing it.

Will have to listen to KNBR. Don't have much confidence in Samardzija though. Cueto was the best chance for a split.

Pubs and restaurants are showing it on RDS with the sound muted. I spoke to Shaw and was told that many residential and business customers have been adding RDS to their channel lineup today.

Why isnt this game on SN1 or 360? They are showing darts ffs. I can't believe I have to stream this game on my laptop. I'd be pissed if i was a Cubs or Giants fan.

Rogers knows that not everyone in Canada is cheering for "Canada's Team" right?

Mind boggling in this day and age that a major sport playoff game is unavailable to an entire country in their majority language or without paying for it on top of their regular service provider.

This is more bush league than anything the CFL has done.

They should leave the sound on

I am glad I sprung for MLB.tv so I could watch the games later as I work alot of evenings. Cubs are looking pretty good tonight, the 2 run single by Hendricks was great.

Another pitcher (Hendricks) hit with a line drive, fortunately this was to the middle of his body. But it at least partially hit the forearm of his pitching arm and the Cubs are pulling him for Wood, hopefully this is just precautionary.

So both starters are out now after 3 innings, bit of a different complexion to this game relative to last nights game between these two teams.

Edit: didn't realize Hendricks was injured by getting hit with a ball, was just following via updates on my phone.

Just got hope, hoping to throw on some playoff baseball, only to find the game not on any channel I have. As a somewhat new fan trying to get into the game more this doesn't help much, pretty pathetic by sportsnet

As others have suggested with this game on the MLB Network exclusively, Sportsnet probably has no choice in the matter.

Taking a thrashing social media, if that was the case they would just say so.
