MLB Extra Innings Free Preview and important update for FanDuel channels

There will be a free preview of MLB Extra Innings for games on regional television channels that aren't in the viewer's market.

It starts on Thursday, March 26 and run through Thursday, April 2.

In addition, many of your baseball teams are changing channels, especially if they were on a FanDuel channel last year. Because they don't want to pay until the last minute, DirecTV hasn't yet added these channels. Please don't freak out until the first time your local team plays on a regional channel. If it's still an hour before game time and you don't see the channel, unplug your receiver and look again. The team's new channel will probably be close to the old channel.

There is an option to pay $99 for a year of streaming access to your local team. Please don't do this. DirecTV will almost certainly add the channel in time for the first game.
