INDIANAPOLIS - The Indiana Fever has added a record 10th game to its local television package on FSN Indiana, adding its Liberty Outdoor Classic game against the New York Liberty on Saturday, July 19 (7:30 p.m.), to be played under the lights at Arthur Ashe Stadium in the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. FSN Indiana will carry a live feed of the game produced by MSG Network.

Barring any weather conflicts, the game will be the first regular season game ever to be played outdoors in professional basketball history. Inclement weather will force the game to be played at Madison Square Garden the following day, Sunday, July 20, at 4:00 p.m. FSN Indiana will not carry a Sunday game if the outdoor game is not played.

Having already added a July 27 road game to its schedule, Indiana's local TV package includes two road dates and has grown to a record 10 games overall, the largest number of games ever to air on the Fever's local carrier.
