Today a Comcast spokesperson from confirmed to me that MASN-HD broadcasts of 80 games – 40 Nationals and 40 O’s will be seen on the MOJO-HD channel. In Baltimore City it is channel 226 HD.
But check your channel guide to make sure.
The spokesperson told me that both Comcast and MASN were working hard so that next season both MASN and CSN+ will have full time HD channels.
Here is what the Comcast spokesperson told me…
“It is in our best interest to show as much HD sports as we can on all of our systems. We are working to make that our cable customers are happy and we know they want HD baseball and also the Caps and Wizards all in HD.”
“We had hoped that we could get it done this year but channel space just would not allow it so we are doing the next best thing. We are offering MASN 80 dates and we know that fans want more but this year that is best we can do. However our goal remains for 2009 for total HD for both MASN and CSN.+.
That is confirms the reports that Comcast and mASN have been working together to get games on this season in HD.
As we know CSN already has their own dedicated channel and produces more live sports in HD each “
year. They started doing HD back in 2003 when the scramble for HD channel space was not so intense.
Look I would love to see both MASN and CSN broadcast all sports in HD as is done in other areas of the country but for now we will have to be happy with all the Wiz, Caps and DC United home games in HD and 40 games each for the Nats and the O’s.
More to come soon.
