The proposed deal has been abandoned and our viewing access remains secure. I am deeply appreciative of how many people engaged with this issue to ensure our concerns reached the right ears. We should remain vigilant regarding future broadcast negotiations as the landscape of televised sports continues to shift.
FYI..........IF YOU ARE A BASEBALL FAN, AND ARE NOT LIVING IN
YOUR FAVORITE TEAMS STATE, YOU MAY BE IN JEOPARDY OF NOT BEING ABLE TO WATCH YOUR TEAM ON TV.
Major League Baseball is close to signing a $100 million deal to make
DirecTV
The feedback I have received from fellow fans confirms that access to games is a fundamental part of how we experience this sport. I am currently reaching out to league representatives to ensure they understand that these exclusive broadcast agreements create barriers for loyal followers who live outside their home markets.
