NEW YORK, March 30, 2010 - Starting this baseball season, Time Warner Cable
subscribers who receive the YES Network in the Yankees' home broadcasting territory
will be able to purchase a package of YES' New York Yankees game telecasts for live in-market
online viewing.
The Yankees on YES Live Game Streaming in-market package will launch in conjunction
with YES' Sunday, April 4, season-opening Yankees-Red Sox telecast (8 pm ET). YES
Network will offer the package to eligible Time Warner Cable customers for $69.95 for
the entire 2010 regular season, or $19.95 for any 30-day period this regular season. All

YES Network will allow eligible Time Warner Cable customers to purchase this package
and use high-speed Internet access to watch YES' Yankees telecasts live on their
computers throughout the Yankees' entire home broadcasting territory. They also will be
able to watch YES' Yankees telecasts live on laptops or other portable computers via

with Major League Baseball Advanced Media to ensure that only eligible Time Warner
Cable customers may subscribe to the package.
The YES Network, the most-watched regional sports network in the nation the past seven
years, and Major League Baseball Advanced Media reached a multi-year agreement last
year paving the way for YES to launch in-market streaming of its Yankees telecasts in
partnership with YES affiliates.
Beginning immediately, eligible Time Warner Cable subscribers can review FAQs for the
package and begin the purchase process by logging on to YESNetwork.com and yankees.com.
