Hhhmmm ... thanks.
Extra Innings seems to be a mostly Direct TV thing.
Verizon says it's part of "In Demand."
Oh well. We'll cross that bridge, I guess, when I get to it.
While I will extoll the virtues of DirecTV, Extra Innings should be available on all cablesystems, Dish Network and Fios as well. It will cost extra no matter what you have (including DirecTV).
That said, switch to DirecTV and give them my name and we'll each save $100 on our service bills.
