    Wtf have we come to when the NLCS is on FS1
    Took me forever to find the game... Is the World Series on HGTV after brother vs brother?

    Whatever happened to the days where the nlcs & alcs were on network tv or even ESPN?

      Sign of the times. TBS and FS1 versus the major networks...

      FS1 Has Record-Setting Night As Cubs Clinch Trip To NLCS
      It was an incredible turn of events late in the game on Tuesday night. Down 5-2 heading into the top of the 9th, the Chicago Cubs amassed four runs and closed out a stunned Giants team hoping for a decisive Game 5 at Wrigley Field.
      The broadcast pushed FS1 to its most-watched telecast in the network’s history, pulling an average audience of 6,368,000 viewers, according to fast national figures released today by Nielsen Media Research.

      The game eclipsed the prior record viewership for FS1 of 6,368,000 viewers for Game 5 of last season’s ALDS between the Houston Astros and Kansas City Royals, the network’s previous record holder, by +7% (vs. 5,944,000 viewers). Last night’s NLDS clincher is up +62% over 2014’s NLDS Game 4 between the San Francisco Giants and Washington Nationals that aired in the late window on FS1 (vs. 3,921,000 viewers).

        And a D3 college football game is on the ESPN networks every week. Baseball viewership must be nothing.

          They're trying like hell to promote this channel. It's pretty pathetic.

              Fox tired of listening to Joe Buck so they put him on their sister channel. Guy is a tool but at least we got rid of his gay ass partner

                                Could be worse, the games could be on tape delay and shown late. When I was a kid the NBA Championship games weren't shown live unless you lived in one of the Final's team city. For most of the country it was tape delayed and shown after the local evening news.

                                  Surprised so many of you don't watch FS1 regularly... far better than ESPN

                                  All of the real talent has been leaving ESPN and going to FS1 for a couple years now

                                      Daner step into the 21st century. TV is obsolete when every networks app streams the games. I watched the first 3 innings from a 3/5 table at Commerce last night.

                                          I want to watch a game on my 56 inch or whatever it is tv...not a phone that's smaller than my dick

                                          it just goes to show where we are I guess. March madness, Final 4, NL alcs, college playoffs, all that use to be on network tv. Now they're on cable networks

                                                You can also port your ipad to a tv and watch. So many ways to watch these game other than cable Nowadays. Paying for cable is wasteful until they let us choose specific channels we want without throwing in 100 channels no one watches.

                                                  Out of curiousity, they let you have a phone/iPad at the table? I haven't played live in ages but they wouldn't let phones at the table in fear of somebody running an app like poker stove

                                                    Not a problem as long as nobody protests is my experience. If I was being shady they might but I was obviously watching the ballgame
