The question is about Red Sox games on NESN. Why can't I get games? All I see are half-hour summaries, etc; reruns of Wade Boggs' number being retired; etc. I know all Red Sox games are on NESN. NESN National (I live in Georgia, transplanted from Boston) is supposed to be for outside the New England region. I paid for HD Premium Tier starting 5/6/16. Please HELP!!

Since you live in Georgia, you no longer live in the specific area served by NESN which is a Regional Sports Network. That is the reason that Red Sox are blacked out where you live.  Your local Regional Sports Network most likely shows Atlanta Braves games.

This blackout of Red Sox games in Georgia is not something that AT&T does on it's own. The blackout is due to Major League Baseball rules concerning Regional Sports Networks that AT&T has to abide by.

Put your zip code in the link provided so that you can see which Major League Baseball, National Basketball League, National Hockey League, and Major League Soccer teams that you can view in the area served by your local Regional Sports Network.

Here is a link that shows each area that is served by each specific Major League Baseball team.
