I have been noticing that Even when The Yankees have been on the Road Direc TV is Blacking out The Home Teams Regional Sports Network. For Example The Yankees Just Completed a series in Cincinnati and The Games were on YES and not on Fox sports Ohio. Now the Yankees are in Chicago and they are blacking out the Cubs Broadcast on Fox Sports Net Chicago but the game is Available on YES. I don't live in the Yankess Home Broadcast Area either. I am in the Deep South. What is the deal. Will all Yankees Games whether they are home or away be on YES Network and we all won't be able to see the Home Teams Broadcast of the game?

So why are they doing this? Does anyone know? Usually they will air the home teams Regional Sports Network when a team is at home and the road teams RSN is blacked out. Anyone know why they are making acceptions for the Yankees and Bo. Sox?
