Fun.

Yeah, I had heard about that too. (I'm an American in Europe.) I don't know what MLB is thinking with so many decisions that it has made the last few years, and this is another one.
I mean, okay if you want to make this horrible decision, but they shouldn't be changing it at the literal last minute. Not only does it give almost no time for those who do have other legal options to scramble and get those, but in the vast majority of countries in the world, there is now no legal way to watch these games.
Plus, there are all of those who paid for a season subscription with the understanding that the playoffs were included who are understandably really upset for that reason.
ETA: I guess those located in countries with no other legal means to watch these games are included in that image that you posted, but you're still blacked out ...
