Can I get fox sports Indiana in Louisville KY?
I can’t watch pacer games on NBA ticket because it says the pacers, the cavaliers and the grizzlies are local and blacked out. However my understanding is I can’t get fox sports Indiana (that is the local channel to watch pacer games) because it’s not considered local. My service is through U-verse. Any solutions?

Fox sports Indiana is carried on 748/749 or 1748/1749 on U-verse in some markets, if you can't get fox sports indiana in louisville, you are out of luck, you could try fox sports go streaming , maybe that would work. Sometimes the viewing customers get cheated as the pro sports team determine you are in their local viewing area, but you can't get the fox sports station in the market in which you live

Hello @Vumael,
We understand that you have a question about can you get Fox sports Indiana. Don't worry, we can help answer that question.
What is your current zip-code? please let us know so we can see if you're able to view pacers games, If you are not able to view you should be able to view on FS Midwest.
Also, here is information on understanding why some games are blacked out.

Hello @Vumael,
According to your zip-code the pacers games are not offered in your area via NBA League Pass. Your area gets FS Cincinnati.

I suspect Bill is on the right path. Each MLB, NBA, MLS and NHL team sets their home territory based on the broadcast area of their broadcaster.
Unfortunately, the further away someone lives from their team's home city, things can get tricky.
For example, I live in Columbus. The Pittsburgh Pirates claim Columbus as their home territory. Apparently, years ago, the Pirates affiliate played in Columbus, so the Pirates wanted their games on TV in Columbus. Unfortunately, the TV providers never picked up the Pittsburgh TV channel due to lack of interest.
If someone wants AT&T SportsNet Pittsburgh in Columbus for Pirates and Penguins games, they have to have a satellite dish or AT&T TV. If they get a package of "out of market" games, all home and away games involving Pittsburgh teams will be blacked out.
What I suspect is going on here... The original poster lives within the TV territory of the Pacers, but far enough that the interest from the TV providers is almost zero.
The original poster should probably look into getting DirecTV. I don't think Dish Network currently has the Fox Sports regional channels due to a dispute.

You responded in the U-Verse section. In the future, please look carefully where you're replying to. In addition, it's ok to start a new thread instead of responding to one a year or more older.
However, based on your zip code, you're blacked out of Cavs, Pacers and Grizzlies games.
Based off this website, you only get Fox Sports Ohio.
It looks like you're in a tricky area of the country where the channel is not available, but you're also blacked out of that team. I'm in Central Ohio, where the Pittsburgh Pirates have laid claim. As such, we get blacked out on Extra Innings, but only maybe 2-3 providers out of 9-10 get AT&T SportsNet Pittsburgh.
I would definitely ask in the AT&T TV section. Remember that this is unofficial support and 99% of the people who post are customers.
