Blackouts on Sportsnet LA
we can now get Sportsnet LA on Directv channel 690. However, I cannot watch replays of Dodger games from the past in San Diego. I can understand why live games would be jammed out, but why is a replay of a game that happened years ago be jammed out in San Diego? The broadcasts obviously do not effect attendance since the game is long over. Will someone from Directv explain why this happens, or is the jamming in error since the channel was recently added. If in error please stop the jamming so we can watch the replays. Thank you.

We can try to help clear up any confusion, @dodgers1988.
We (DIRECTV) are not in control of what content gets blacked out. The league, associations and networks are in control over what content gets restricted and when, and we are obligated to follow their restrictions in order to broadcast the content. These restrictions are usually not limited to when the event was originally aired, especially if they are played on a regional sports network. You can learn more in our blackout support article.
If you have questions about what restrictions are currently in place, please reach out to the viewer relations team for the league in charge of the event.
Let us know if you have any other questions about your DIRECTV services.
