What they said here on the radio was that ESPN turned the game back to the
two regional cable nets - YES and NESN  - so that the Easter Sunday game on
ESPN2 does not have enough coverage to count as an exclusive national game.
 Since it isn't an exclusive national game, ESPN can have an extra Sunday
Yankees and/or Red Sox game down the road.  There are limits to how many
times a team can appear on Sunday night baseball.

As awful as Michael Kay is, it was still better listening to him on YES than
have three hours and 46 minutes of Joe Morgan talking about Derek Jeter as a
home run hitter and why Joe doesn't like Mark Teixeira's batting stance
(seconds before he hits a home run).
