Fox Sports Midwest, which owns the local television broadcasting rights to the Blues and Cardinals, has a logjam Saturday night.
Because both teams are playing simultaneously it will show hockey (Blues-Washington, 7 p.m.) on its main channel and baseball (Cards-Atlanta at 6:10 p.m.) on its Fox Sports Plus alternate outlet.
This is the arrangement for the immediate St. Louis area. In outlying areas other than those served by AT&T U-Verse, DirecTV and Dish, baseball will be on the primary channel and hockey on the Fox Sports Plus. U-Verse, DirecTV and Dish have hockey on FSM's main channel.
