The Seattle FOX affiliate was showing the Dodgers-Padres, but FOX was also "nationally" televising the Twins game. And the Mets game. They usually pick 3-4 games a week now to "nationally" televise when they are really regionally televising them and screwing over those of us with mlb.tv who would like to see a game that our local FOX affiliate isn't picking up.
