That dude comes up just now, and blasts a shot over the center field fence. He has an ops right now over 2.00. :wow: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MLB takes over these network broadcasts? https://www.kansascity.com/sports/mlb/kansas-city-royals/article273158095.html Shortly after the Royals’ spring-training game against the Cincinnati Reds began Tuesday night in Arizona, Diamond Sports Group announced it had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Diamond, a subsidiary of Sinclair Broadcast Group, owns Bally Sports Kansas City, which was broadcasting Tuesday’s Royals game. In a news release, Diamond said it is looking to “eliminate over $8 billion of the Company’s outstanding debt.” The news comes a little more than two weeks before the Royals begin the regular season, but Diamond said Tuesday’s move won’t affect broadcasts on the 19 regional sports networks it owns, including Bally Sports KC.

I think it said bally sports has rights to maybe 14 team broadcasts. It's a bigger issue than just one team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been to two openings, strangely neither for the Brewers. Seen openers for both the Cubs and Indians---long long time ago. Saw the Cubs opener in HS-just showed up and got tickets-but every since Wrigleyville became such a hot spot to live in Chicago, I doubt many HS kids can afford opening day tickets to see em.
