... the feed picked up again. Hooray!

Sports Illustrated reported that the Fox broadcast truck lost power in Kansas City.

Fox lost power to its broadcast truck in Kansas City. If and when I find out more, I'll let you know.

Fox's production truck & part of MLB Network Int'l feed's power generator blew causing technical difficulties. Welcome to live television!

Coincidentally around 7 p.m., Kansas City viewers were hit with TV and Internet outages due to technical difficulties with Google Fiber -- right before the game began.

This isn't happening right now...Are you serious @googlefiber?? Picked a wonderful time to go out here in KCMO.

We're so sorry about the outage in KC. We know it couldn't have happened at a worse time, and we're working as quickly as we can to fix it.

I had to break out my bunny ears antenna to watch the #WorldSeries. @googlefiber you have failed Kansas City.

Really disappointed in @googlefiber @googlefiberhelp ... All of Kansas City goes down minutes before #WorldSeries first pitch, unacceptable
