I bought the Major League Baseball package from Verizon at the end of April.  I was told by the marketing rep there are no blackouts except for Saturday from PM to PM (The ESPN monopoly)  Today I tried to watch Mets against the Pirates from Pittsburgh ( I live outside of Pittsburgh)  -Got the pre-game then signal went blank.  Finally got through their hideous voice response system to an operator.  After 15 minutes she told me game was blacked out in PA, NY and NJ.  Liars, liars, pants on fire.
