Cox high speed internet users can stream live Padres games
July 13, 2009
The Padres, Cox Communications San Diego and MLB Advanced Media (MLBAM) announced that broadcasts of Padres games beginning July 16 will be available live online for customers of Cox high speed internet service.
It will cost $49.95 for the rest of the season or $19.95 for any 30-day period - the same price customers pay for a similar service for Yankees games from YES and Cablevision's Optimum online service.
Using an authentication process that will be enabled and managed by MLBAM and Cox, Cox high speed internet customers can watch Padres games live on their computer anywhere in the Padres television market, including at work or at home.
Bob DuPuy, president and COO of Major League Baseball, said the agreement represents a significant step in offering in-market streaming of games. "I expect additional clubs to follow in the near future," he said.
"We're proud to be at the forefront and breaking new ground among professional sports franchises by offering live in-market online viewing to our fans," said Tom Garfinkel, president and COO of the San Diego Padres.
