Because the Blues have a playoff game Wednesday night, Fox Sports Midwest is set to show that contest on its main channel and send its telecast of the Cardinals’ game to Fox Sports Midwest Plus. That’s the channel it uses when two games that it has rights to are taking place simultaneously.
This is the plan for the St. Louis market. Outside the immediate area, the setup is to be reversed — baseball will be on the main channel, hockey on FSM Plus.
Ooutside the market, the hockey game also will be shown on NBCSN. However, that network’s telecast is blacked out locally in favor of the FSM production.
