MLB Extra Innings blackout for HD channels not lifted after game

MLB extra innings puts up a blackout screen when the broadcast is for the local team.

After the game, the blackout is supposed to be lifted. The 'default' schedule screen of the MLB games comes up if there is no game being played. This is how it works for the SD bank of 13 channels. However, the blackout is not removed for the HD bank of 9 channels.

 

THis has happened multiple times. No one has solved the problem, but manually removes the blackout for me after some period of time.

 

Now the network group won't even do that, but come back, saying, wait till there is a game on. THey have done this to me the last two times.

 

Since the local team can be on any of the HD channels, this means it can block a different channel every day.

 

I have given up that the problem will be fixed, but need a workaround to get the channel blackout lifted in the easiest fastest way. I am waiting for last night's game blackout to be lifted in the next 3 hours to get the non-local game that starts then.
