M</span><br/> ajor League Baseball (MLB) has extended their broadcast rights contract with WarnerMedia-owned network Turner Sports, for a further seven years and USD$3.2 billion.</p><p>The extension will take effect in 2022 and represents a 40 percent increase on the network’s existing deal.</p><p>WarnerMedia, sports and news chairman, Jeff Zucker, said the commitment to baseball from Turner is as strong as it has ever been.</p><p>“Our strategy is to present premium live sports, and obviously extending our deal was an important pillar,” Zucker said.</p><p>The broadcaster will double the number of live MLB games it airs each season following the addition of Sunday regular season fixtures to its existing Tuesday night package.</p><p>The deal also includes exclusive rights to one wildcard game, the most post-season games on any network and a season-long Game of the Week on Tuesday nights instead of Sunday afternoons.</p><p>MLB, commissioner, Rob Manfred, said moving to Tuesdays gives Turner more opportunities to expand its baseball reach.</p><p>“We think summer Sunday afternoons aren’t a great place to have them,” Manfred said.</p><p>“Fans have a lot of other things to do and there are two national windows the same day,” he said.</p><p>The renewal with Turner Sports cements a 50 plus-year partnership and follows MLB’s contract extension with Fox in 2018 valued at USD$5.1 billion.</p><p>Disney owned-ESPN remains the only network yet to renew its contract with MLB.</p><p>Speaking to CNBC, Octagon, senior vice president, Dan Cohen, said he expects ESPN to pay roughly USD$1.2 billion per year to retain its MLB rights.</p><p>In those circumstances, the MLB’s national T.V. rights revenue would increase to approximately USD$2 billion per year, up from USD$1.5 billion.</p><p>Cohen also said the league’s value could increase if the MLB and its players’ union agree on a new playoff format that would increase games.</p><p>However, following another rejected proposal, Manfred said there might not be a major league season if the MLB and the players’ union cannot come to a financial agreement.</p><p>“It’s just a disaster for our game, absolutely no question about it,” Manfred said during an appearance on ESPN.</p><p>“It shouldn’t be happening, and it’s important that we find a way to get past it and get the game back on the field for the benefit of our fans,” he said.</p><p>The MLB suspended operations on March 12 due to Covid-19.</p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="mkdf-post-info-bottom clearfix"><div
