Ring questions

A couple of ring related questions:

I was down in Monterey for a conference over the weekend and the hotel (Monterey Plaza Hotel & Spa) did not have CSN on the hotel cable. (Gasp!) And of course Monterey is still in the Giants' area and thus an MLB.TV account does you no good. I got to listen to the end on the radio, but missed the ring ceremony. When we got home, I tried to watch the recorded game on MLB.TV through my Apple TV. But while the video has an hour before first pitch, the picture is blocked out by Volvo commercials and "this game will start shortly" messages. (You can see the grand entrance on the automobiles and there are a few seconds here and there of the first three or four presentations--but mostly it is an hour of nothing.) Any idea where I could find this? I looked on the Giants' website and on CSN Bay Area but couldn't find it.

The second question is about the ring itself. All the articles mention 77 diamonds. What is the significance of that number? 77 people got rings? Something else?
