I don't watch baseball, but I always assumed MLB.tv and NHL.tv used the same technology.

The way NHL.tv used to work, the blackout check would be done when you opened the stream. So you could connect to a VPN in, say, Germany, start the stream, then disconnect the VPN and after a brief interruption the playback would continue. If you did the VPN connection from your router you could stream from any device, too.

Funny thing, the ads always seemed to know exactly what market you were in.

NHL used to use MLBAM. Now the NHL package goes through ESPN+.
