Highly doubtful as blackout rules affect if you watch it on the RSN (in-market) or specific local channel if in the immediate area, or MLB Extra Innings (out-of-market), or FOX/ESPN for the special weekend blackout rules that no other sport has. But let us know how they respond.

There was mention that DirecTV is keeping an eye on the situation to see if any adjustments (proactive or only for those that call-in) will be in place on affected sports subscriptions. But nothing confirmed yet.

@bkoslow, Wish we could help with MLB Blackouts, however it's rules and contact agreements set by the league.

Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Thank you for contacting AT&T Community and Forums.
