If you don't want to watch football games Thanksgiving weekend, then tune into MLB Network for a marathon of all-time games.

MLB Network will air classic baseball games, starting at 3:30 p.m. Thursday with the 1971 All-Star game. That was the game in which Oakland A's slugger Reggie Jackson hit a home run off the light tower on the roof of Tiger Stadium.

The final All-Star game played at the old Yankee Stadium in 2008 will also be televised. Eight All-Star games will air on MLB Network for the first time as part of the marathon, including 1982, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1996, 1997, 1999 and 2000.
