As Major League Baseball attempts to dramatically change the way fans experience the game, uncertainty hovers around how fans are able to even access it.
Earlier this month, Diamond Sports Group, a subsidiary of Sinclair Broadcast Group that operates regional sports networks across the country branded as Bally Sports, filed for bankruptcy amid heavy debt.
Bally Sports owns the broadcast rights for 14 MLB teams, leaving a significant number of fans on unsteady ground as they get set for Opening Day.
Thirteen of those teams are owed their broadcast rights fees by Diamond Sports Group by April 30, per ESPN, meaning a major overhaul could happen quickly.
