In a significant shift for regional sports broadcasting, Major League Baseball (MLB) announced it will take over the production and distribution of local games for the Cleveland Guardians, Milwaukee Brewers, and Minnesota Twins starting in 2025. This change comes as four MLB teams, including the aforementioned, drop their television partnership with Bally Sports, which is facing financial difficulties. With MLB stepping in, fans can expect more streamlined access to games, eliminating previous blackout restrictions associated with the old broadcasting agreements. Additionally, the Twins will maintain their radio presence with Audacy and continue to be aired on WCCO. The transition marks a new era for local game broadcasts and aims to enhance viewer engagement for these teams.
