Other than 10 games shown on KTLA earlier this season, Dodger games are only available on SportsNet LA, which is carried exclusively by Spectrum Networks, part of Charter Communications, Inc.
No other local provider of cable or satellite service has agreed to carry SportsNet LA, leaving many Southern Californians without access to televised Dodger games, according to the Los Angeles Times.
