MLB Network - Blu-ray Forum

Will be launching today at 6pm est. It will be channel 213 on DirecTv and will be available in HD. Other cable providers will also be carrying the channel from day one. Dish Network customers are left out in the cold right now.

Thanks to the YES network, Yankees fans don't need ESPN.

Forrestandjen07 · 01-02-2009, 01:22 AM

so what cable users actually got this at launch?

Galley · 01-02-2009, 01:42 AM

This will truly be the greatest TV network in history. It looks amazing in HD. Play ball!

Clark Kent · 01-02-2009, 01:43 AM

It was awesome seeing the vintage broadcast of Don Larsen's perfect game in the World Series. I hope this channel is better than the NFL and NBA channels, which are a little too generic for my tastes.
