Sox bumping C's playoffs in Prov?

On Twitter @HonyMustar asked
>>so celtics radio broadcast is not available in providence tonight? Weei thinks we'd rather listen to meaningless sox game?

Did they actually do that on 103.7? I don't quite think other C's affiliates could reach Prov. well.
If that did happen last night, well, it looks like the rest of the playoff series will also conflict
with Sox, and if 103.7 doesn't pick up the C's, are C's fans in Prov. pretty much out of luck...
(Can't stream... could prob get on XM I guess)
Not sure if they can get another Prov station (WHJJ? WPRO? etc) to pick them up

A couple of years ago they(WEEI) had an arangement with WBRU in which WBRU would air the SOX game while WVEI(then WEEI) would air playoffs.
Allthough WBRU's Sunday night programming is very popular I don't think they would pre-empt for baseball.
 
WEEI is contractually obligated to carry all Sox games... they can't bump it. The other night during the Sox game 103.7 was running a liner that said the celtics game was being carried on 1450am (or another high AM like WOON).

Within the past few years there was a week or two WBRU carried The RedSox so WEEI could air something else.Somebody here must remember
