As said in an earlier post, look on Saturday and Sunday on this LINK:
http://www.xmradio.com/onxm/channelguide.xmc?ch=175
It does not show what teams are playing though.
XM probably will not have the spring schedule until around Feb.

XM carries "selected" spring training games beginning on the first day of the Grapefruit and Cactus league seasons.
The criteria for airing on XM in years past have been:
1) The game must be carried live on terrestrial radio by one of the participating teams. That means no "webcast only" games (The Blue Jays and Brewers occasionally do that.) and no games that will be aired later in the day by the team's flagship station (The Dodgers occasionally do that.).
2) No split-squad games. This means any game in which either team is fielding a split squad. The rule is ironclad; XM once refused to carry a Red Sox-Yankees Grapefruit League game because the Yankees had another squad playing elsewhere that day.
3) Weekend schedules, especially on Saturdays, can be subject to bandwidth issues. Regular-season sports have priority -- a lot of NHL, NBA and college basketball on a given day means less exhibition baseball. |

Had already looked there - didn't there use to be a list of classic games under its own link?

This is only a guess, but I bet that isn't going to happen anymore now that they're in Arizona.

| My guess is with NBA and more college games we will get less weekend games during spring training. |

| I think this is at least the second, if not the third, time this specific game has already been repeated within the last few weekends. |

| For those upset about missing tonight's SD/Col 07 game, don't worry, it'll be on again in a week or two. Seriously, if they are just going to play the same dozen or so games on over and over, just put replays of the week's shows on instead. |

Just like the SIRIUS music rotation.
