I don’t know if this’d work stateside, but over here in the UK, I can always get my Twins “fix” through a betting site I use called Bet365.com - they do live streams of EVERY game, without fail. There’s a catch though – you can’t see it full screen, you just get a window probably a little under a quarter size. But you get the box score, you get the usual commentary, and its free. And if I’ve bet on the game, I get the live in-play odds updating (always amazes me how short our odds suddenly go when the Twins actually get their noses in front – don’t they WATCH this team ??). Anyway, its not perfect by any means being as its not full screen. But I often have the game on there just to keep half an eye on it with the commentary turned up so I can dash over if something happens. Decent fallback option if there’s ever another “blackout” on the coverage over there. You may have to open an account and put $5 in or something though. Just an idea (if indeed the live streams on that site work the same in the USA as they do here).
