In reaction to the failed trial with CBS,<a href="#cite_note-31">[31]</a> Major League Baseball was desperately grasping for every available dollar. To put things into proper perspective, in <a href="/wiki/1991_Major_League_Baseball_season" title="1991 Major League Baseball season">1991</a>, the second year of Major League Baseball's contract with CBS, CBS reported a loss of around $169 million in the third quarter of the year. A decline in advertiser interest caused revenue from the sale of commercials during CBS's baseball telecasts to plummet. All the while, CBS was still contractually obligated to pay Major League Baseball around $260 million a year through <a href="/wiki/1993_Major_League_Baseball_season" title="1993 Major League Baseball season">1993</a>.<a href="#cite_note-32">[32]</a> Before Major League Baseball decided to seek the services of other networks, CBS<a href="#cite_note-33">[33]</a> offered US$120 million in annual rights fees over a two-year period,<a href="#cite_note-34">[34]</a><a href="#cite_note-35">[35]</a><a href="#cite_note-36">[36]</a><a href="#cite_note-37">[37]</a> as well as advertising revenues in excess of $150 million<a href="#cite_note-38">[38]</a> a season. As part of MLB's attempt to produce and market the games in-house, it hoped to provide games of regional interests to appropriate markets. Major League Baseball in the process, hoped to offer important games for divisional races to the overall market. Owners also hoped that this particular technique, combined with the additional division races created through league expansion (the <a href="/wiki/Colorado_Rockies" title="Colorado Rockies">Colorado Rockies</a> and <a href="/wiki/Miami_Marlins" title="Miami Marlins">Florida Marlins</a> had begun play the year prior) and the quest for wild card spots for the playoffs (<a href="/wiki/1994_Major_League_Baseball_season" title="1994 Major League Baseball season">1994</a> was the first year of three divisions for each league and would have been the first year for the wild card) would increase<a href="#cite_note-39">[39]</a> the national broadcast revenue for Major League Baseball in the foreseeable future. On May 28, 1993, Major League Baseball's owners overwhelmingly approved<a href="#cite_note-Smith-40">[40]</a> a new network television deal without CBS involved. After a four-year hiatus, <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_on_ABC" title="Major League Baseball on ABC">ABC</a> and <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_on_NBC" title="Major League Baseball on NBC">NBC</a><a href="#cite_note-41">[41]</a> (who <a href="/wiki/1989_Major_League_Baseball_season" title="1989 Major League Baseball season">last</a> aired <a href="/wiki/Thursday_Night_Baseball" title="Thursday Night Baseball">Thursday Night Baseball</a> games and the Saturday afternoon <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_Game_of_the_Week" title="Major League Baseball Game of the Week">Game of the Week</a><a href="#cite_note-42">[42]</a> respectively) returned to Major League Baseball under the umbrella of a <a href="/wiki/Revenue_sharing" title="Revenue sharing">revenue sharing</a> venture called The Baseball Network.<a href="#cite_note-43">[43]</a><a href="#cite_note-44">[44]</a><a href="#cite_note-45">[45]</a> Under a six-year plan (with an option for two additional years<a href="#cite_note-46">[46]</a>), Major League Baseball was intended to receive 85<a href="/wiki/Percentage" title="Percentage">%</a> of the first US$140 million<a href="#cite_note-47">[47]</a> in advertising<a href="#cite_note-48">[48]</a> revenue (or 87.5%<a href="#cite_note-49">[49]</a> of advertising revenues<a href="#cite_note-50">[50]</a> and corporate sponsorship<a href="#cite_note-51">[51]</a> from the games until sales topped a specified level), 50% of the next $30 million, and 80% of any additional money. Prior to this, Major League Baseball was projected to take a projected 55% cut in rights fees and receive a typical rights fee from the networks. When compared to the previous television deal with CBS, The Baseball Network was supposed to bring in 50% less of the broadcasting revenue. The advertisers<a href="#cite_note-52">[52]</a><a href="#cite_note-53">[53]</a> were reportedly excited about the arrangement with The Baseball Network because the new package included several changes intended to boost <a href="/wiki/Nielsen_ratings" class="mw-redirect" title="Nielsen ratings">ratings</a>, especially among younger viewers. Arranging broadcasts through The Baseball Network seemed, on the surface, to benefit NBC and ABC (who each contributed $10 million in start-up funds<a href="#cite_note-54">[54]</a>) since it gave them a <a href="/wiki/Monopoly" title="Monopoly">monopoly</a> on broadcasting Major League Baseball games. The deal was similar to a <a href="/wiki/Brokered_programming" title="Brokered programming">time-buy</a>, instead of a traditional rights fee<a href="#cite_note-55">[55]</a><a href="#cite_note-56">[56]</a> situation. It also stood to benefit the networks because they reduced the risk associated with purchasing the broadcast rights outright (in stark contrast to CBS's disastrous contract with Major League Baseball from the 1990–1993 seasons). NBC and ABC were to create a loss-free environment for each other and keep an emerging <a href="/wiki/Fox_Broadcasting_Company" title="Fox Broadcasting Company">Fox</a>, which had recently made an aggressive and ultimately successful $1.58 billion bid for the <a href="/wiki/NFL_on_television" title="NFL on television">television rights</a> for <a href="/wiki/National_Football_Conference" title="National Football Conference">National Football Conference</a> games (thus, becoming a major player in the sports broadcasting game in the process), at bay. As a result of Fox's NFL gain, CBS was weakened further by <a href="/wiki/1994_United_States_broadcast_TV_realignment" class="mw-redirect" title="1994 United States broadcast TV realignment">affiliate changes</a>, as a number of stations jumped to Fox from CBS (for example, in <a href="/wiki/Detroit" title="Detroit">Detroit</a>, <a href="/wiki/WWJ-TV" title="WWJ-TV">WWJ-TV</a> replaced long-standing CBS Affiliate <a href="/wiki/WJBK" title="WJBK">WJBK</a> when Fox moved there from <a href="/wiki/WKBD" class="mw-redirect" title="WKBD">WKBD</a>).

Ueberroth wanted to set up a national cable package for one or two nights a week without undercutting the value of some teams' local television deals. This of course, would soon happen when Major League Baseball signed a deal to broadcast games on <a href="/wiki/ESPN_Major_League_Baseball" title="ESPN Major League Baseball">ESPN</a>, but prior to this, Ueberroth envisioned the owners pooling games already being shown on <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_on_regional_sports_networks" title="Major League Baseball on regional sports networks">regional pay-television services</a>. Viewers would see (and pay for) the telecast of the team in their market if a game was scheduled; otherwise, they would be sent games of regional or divisional interest. Eventually, baseball could have also shared the channel with the <a href="/wiki/National_Hockey_League" title="National Hockey League">NHL</a> or <a href="/wiki/National_Basketball_Association" title="National Basketball Association">NBA</a> in the off-season. It wasn't until January 1, 2009 (nearly 14 years since the cancellation of the Baseball Network) that an all-baseball cable channel, <a href="/wiki/MLB_Network" title="MLB Network">MLB Network</a> (created and backed by MLB)<a href="#cite_note-sportsbusiness-83">[83]</a> would finally come to fruition and would prove to be much more successful than the ill-fated Baseball Network. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Coverage">Coverage</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Baseball_Network&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Coverage">edit</a>]</div> The Baseball Network kicked off its coverage on July 12, 1994, on <a href="/wiki/NBC" title="NBC">NBC</a> with the <a href="/wiki/1994_Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="1994 Major League Baseball All-Star Game">All-Star Game</a><a href="#cite_note-84">[84]</a><a href="#cite_note-85">[85]</a> from <a href="/wiki/Three_Rivers_Stadium" title="Three Rivers Stadium">Three Rivers Stadium</a> in <a href="/wiki/Pittsburgh" title="Pittsburgh">Pittsburgh</a>.<a href="#cite_note-86">[86]</a> This was NBC's first telecast of a Major League Baseball game since Game 5 of the <a href="/wiki/1989_National_League_Championship_Series" title="1989 National League Championship Series">1989 National League Championship Series</a> between the <a href="/wiki/1989_San_Francisco_Giants_season" title="1989 San Francisco Giants season">San Francisco Giants</a> and <a href="/wiki/1989_Chicago_Cubs_season" title="1989 Chicago Cubs season">Chicago Cubs</a> on October 9 of <a href="/wiki/1989_Major_League_Baseball_season" title="1989 Major League Baseball season">that year</a>.

A single starting time gave the networks the opportunity to broadcast one game and then, simultaneously, cut to another game when there was a break in action.

What separated The Baseball Network from previous television deals with Major League Baseball, and was by far the most controversial part of the deal, was that not all postseason games (aside from the World Series) were guaranteed to be shown nationally.<a href="#cite_note-140">[140]</a><a href="#cite_note-141">[141]</a><a href="#cite_note-142">[142]</a><a href="#cite_note-143">[143]</a> To increase viewership by preventing games from being played in the afternoon (the league was the only professional sports league in the country to play postseason games on weekday afternoons), the National League and American League's division and championship series games were instead played simultaneously<a href="#cite_note-144">[144]</a> in primetime, and affiliates could only air one game each night, which were again determined regionally.<a href="#cite_note-whosonroutine-145">[145]</a><a href="#cite_note-146">[146]</a> If one playoff series had already concluded, the remaining games would be aired nationally.<a href="#cite_note-147">[147]</a> Ken Schanzer, The Baseball Network's president<a href="#cite_note-148">[148]</a> said "We've been given a responsibility to broadcast the games regionally<a href="#cite_note-149">[149]</a> and, within that context, we tried to come up with a plan that makes it as exciting as possible". On that end, The Baseball Network implemented a strategy that included cutting in to one game with highlights from other games—sometimes between batters, and more often, between pitches. Therefore, viewers watching one divisional series or League Championship Series game would often see action continuing on one reduced screen while a clip from another game is shown on another screen and vice versa. The theory was that by inserting highlights, even live action from other games, into the natural lulls, The Baseball Network could produce an exciting, technology-enhanced experience. Despite the frustration of not being able to see both League Championship Series on a national level, the 1995 LCS averaged a 13.1 rating.<a href="#cite_note-150">[150]</a> Besides the <a href="/wiki/1994_Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="1994 Major League Baseball All-Star Game">1994 All-Star Game</a> and Game 6 of the <a href="/wiki/1995_World_Series" title="1995 World Series">1995 World Series</a>,<a href="#cite_note-151">[151]</a> arguably, the most famous Baseball Network broadcast was Game 5 of the <a href="/wiki/1995_American_League_Division_Series" title="1995 American League Division Series">1995 American League Division Series</a> between the <a href="/wiki/1995_New_York_Yankees_season" title="1995 New York Yankees season">New York Yankees</a> and the <a href="/wiki/1995_Seattle_Mariners_season" title="1995 Seattle Mariners season">Seattle Mariners</a>,<a href="#cite_note-152">[152]</a> broadcast on ABC.<a href="#cite_note-153">[153]</a> It ended with the Mariners winning in 11 innings (via <a href="/wiki/Edgar_Mart%C3%ADnez" title="Edgar Martínez">Edgar Martínez</a>'s game winning <a href="/wiki/The_Double_(Seattle_Mariners)" title="The Double (Seattle Mariners)">double</a>), to clinch both their first postseason series win, and their first ever trip to the <a href="/wiki/1995_American_League_Championship_Series" title="1995 American League Championship Series">American League Championship Series</a>.

Marty Noble put it in perspective by saying "With the Network determining when games will begin and which games are made available to which <a href="/wiki/Media_market" title="Media market">TV markets</a>, Major League Baseball can conduct parts of its pennant races in relative secrecy." What added to the troubles of The Baseball Network was the fact that Baseball Night in America held exclusivity<a href="#cite_note-158">[158]</a> over every market. This most severely impacted markets with two teams, specifically <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a> (<a href="/wiki/New_York_Mets" title="New York Mets">Mets</a><a href="#cite_note-159">[159]</a> and <a href="/wiki/New_York_Yankees" title="New York Yankees">Yankees</a>), to the <a href="/wiki/Greater_Los_Angeles_Area" class="mw-redirect" title="Greater Los Angeles Area">Greater Los Angeles Area</a> (<a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles_Dodgers" title="Los Angeles Dodgers">Dodgers</a> and <a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles_Angels_of_Anaheim" class="mw-redirect" title="Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim">Angels</a>), <a href="/wiki/Chicago" title="Chicago">Chicago</a><a href="#cite_note-:1-114">[114]</a> (<a href="/wiki/Chicago_Cubs" title="Chicago Cubs">Cubs</a> and <a href="/wiki/Chicago_White_Sox" title="Chicago White Sox">White Sox</a>), the <a href="/wiki/San_Francisco_Bay_Area" title="San Francisco Bay Area">San Francisco Bay Area</a> (<a href="/wiki/San_Francisco_Giants" title="San Francisco Giants">Giants</a> and <a href="/wiki/Oakland_Athletics" title="Oakland Athletics">A's</a>), and to a lesser extent, the state of <a href="/wiki/Texas" title="Texas">Texas</a> (<a href="/wiki/Houston_Astros" title="Houston Astros">Houston Astros</a> and <a href="/wiki/Texas_Rangers_(baseball)" title="Texas Rangers (baseball)">Texas Rangers</a>). For example, if Baseball Night in America showed a Yankees game, this meant that nobody in New York could see that night's Mets game and vice versa. Furthermore, Chicago's NBC affiliate, <a href="/wiki/WMAQ-TV" title="WMAQ-TV">WMAQ-TV</a> was unable to televise any Friday night <a href="/wiki/1995_Chicago_Cubs_season" title="1995 Chicago Cubs season">Cubs</a> game from <a href="/wiki/Wrigley_Field" title="Wrigley Field">Wrigley Field</a>.<a href="#cite_note-:1-114">[114]</a> Even though Wrigley Field had lights installed and was capable of holding night games since <a href="/wiki/1988_Chicago_Cubs_season" title="1988 Chicago Cubs season">1988</a>, a city ordinance at the time, prohibited regular season Friday and Saturday night games to be played there. The Baseball Network regardless, owned the broadcasting rights to those entire dates. Even in markets with only one team, the ABC or NBC affiliate could still not broadcast that team's game if the start time was not appropriate for the time zone. For example, if the <a href="/wiki/Detroit_Tigers" title="Detroit Tigers">Detroit Tigers</a> (the only team in their market) played a road game in <a href="/wiki/Kingdome" title="Kingdome">Seattle</a>, <a href="/wiki/Overstock.com_Coliseum" class="mw-redirect" title="Overstock.com Coliseum">Oakland</a><a href="#cite_note-160">[160]</a> or <a href="/wiki/Angel_Stadium_of_Anaheim" class="mw-redirect" title="Angel Stadium of Anaheim">Anaheim</a><a href="#cite_note-161">[161]</a> beginning at 8 p.m. Pacific Time (a late game), Detroit's Baseball Network affiliate (either <a href="/wiki/WXYZ-TV" title="WXYZ-TV">WXYZ-TV</a> or <a href="/wiki/WDIV-TV" title="WDIV-TV">WDIV</a>, depending on the network which held the rights to the game) could not air the game because the start time was too late for the Detroit area (11 p.m. Eastern Time<a href="#cite_note-162">[162]</a>). Detroit viewers only had the option of viewing the early game of the night. Some local broadcasters also objected the policies of The Baseball Network. <a href="/wiki/KSMO-TV" title="KSMO-TV">KSMO-TV</a> in <a href="/wiki/Kansas_City,_Missouri" title="Kansas City, Missouri">Kansas City</a>, the primary over-the-air station for the <a href="/wiki/Kansas_City_Royals" title="Kansas City Royals">Kansas City Royals</a>, went as far as to sue the Royals for breach of contract resulting from their broadcasts being "overexposed" and violating its territorial exclusivity. <a href="/wiki/Sports_Illustrated" title="Sports Illustrated">Sports Illustrated</a> columnist <a href="/wiki/Tom_Verducci" title="Tom Verducci">Tom Verducci</a> for one, was very harsh on The Baseball Network, dubbing it both "America's regional pastime" and an "abomination." ABC Sports president Dennis Swanson,<a href="#cite_note-163">[163]</a> in announcing the dissolution of The Baseball Network, said "The fact of the matter is, Major League Baseball seems incapable at this point in time, of living with any long term relationships, whether it's with fans, with players, with the political community in <a href="/wiki/Washington,_D.C." title="Washington, D.C.">Washington</a>, with the advertising community here in <a href="/wiki/Manhattan" title="Manhattan">Manhattan</a>, or with its TV partners."<a href="#cite_note-164">[164]</a> While on assignment at the <a href="/wiki/1993_World_Series" title="1993 World Series">1993 World Series</a>, <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_on_CBS" title="Major League Baseball on CBS">CBS Sports</a> broadcaster <a href="/wiki/Sean_McDonough" title="Sean McDonough">Sean McDonough</a> told the <a href="/wiki/New_York_Times" class="mw-redirect" title="New York Times">New York Times</a><a href="#cite_note-165">[165]</a> that The Baseball Network's strategy of regionalizing the playoffs irked him because with both <a href="/wiki/League_Championship_Series" title="League Championship Series">League Championship Series</a> now being played simultaneously, no market would be able see both games; rather, the two playoff series would be regionalized into areas of natural interest. The only exception would be Games 6 and 7 of the two series, which would have staggered starting times. McDonough said that this would affect out-of-state viewers, for example if the <a href="/wiki/Boston_Red_Sox" title="Boston Red Sox">Red Sox</a> were in the playoffs (which would incidentally, actually happen under the watch of The Baseball Network in <a href="/wiki/1995_Boston_Red_Sox_season" title="1995 Boston Red Sox season">1995</a>), then a Boston native located in Atlanta would have missed the games. He also believed that his call of <a href="/wiki/Sid_Bream" title="Sid Bream">Sid Bream</a>'s slide to clinch the <a href="/wiki/List_of_National_League_pennant_winners" title="List of National League pennant winners">National League pennant</a> for the <a href="/wiki/1992_Atlanta_Braves_season" title="1992 Atlanta Braves season">Atlanta Braves</a> in Game 7 of the <a href="/wiki/1992_National_League_Championship_Series" title="1992 National League Championship Series">1992 National League Championship Series</a> against the <a href="/wiki/1992_Pittsburgh_Pirates_season" title="1992 Pittsburgh Pirates season">Pittsburgh Pirates</a> would have had a lower impact if fans had missed the early part of the game. To put things into further perspective, McDonough believed that even with a staggered starting time from the <a href="/wiki/1992_American_League_Championship_Series" title="1992 American League Championship Series">American League Championship Series</a> game, many fans would not have seen parts of Game 7 of the 1992 NLCS had it been broadcast under The Baseball Network's regionalized plan. Shortly after the start of the strike, <a href="/wiki/Stanford_University" title="Stanford University">Stanford University</a>'s Roger Noll<a href="#cite_note-166">[166]</a> argued that the Baseball Network deal (and the bargain-basement <a href="/wiki/ESPN_Major_League_Baseball" title="ESPN Major League Baseball">ESPN</a> cable renewal, which went from $100 million to $42 million because of their losses) reflected "poor business judgment on the part of management about the long-run attractiveness of their product to national broadcasters." He added that the $140 million that owners expected to share for the 1994 season (before the strike) from TBN was underestimated by "one-third to one-half" and fell below the annual average of $165 million needed to renew the TBN deal after two years. Meanwhile, Andy Zimbalist, author of Baseball and Billions, and a <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_Players_Association" title="Major League Baseball Players Association">players' union</a> consulting economist, insisted that baseball could have done better than the TBN deal with some combination of <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_on_CBS" title="Major League Baseball on CBS">CBS</a> (which offered $120 million last-ditch bid for renewal), <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_on_Fox" class="mw-redirect" title="Major League Baseball on Fox">Fox</a> and <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_on_TBS" class="mw-redirect" title="Major League Baseball on TBS">TBS</a>. Baseball shut out CBS and could have waited longer before closing them out." Five years after The Baseball Network dissolved, <a href="/wiki/NBC_Sports" title="NBC Sports">NBC Sports</a> <a href="/wiki/Play-by-play" class="mw-redirect" title="Play-by-play">play-by-play</a> announcer Bob Costas<a href="#cite_note-167">[167]</a> wrote in his book Fair Ball: A Fan's Case for Baseball<a href="#cite_note-168">[168]</a> that The Baseball Network was "stupid and an abomination." Costas further wrote that the agreement involving the World Series being the only instance of The Baseball Network broadcasting a nationally televised game was an unprecedented surrender of prestige, as well as a slap to all serious fans. He also acknowledged that the most impassioned fans in baseball were now prevented<a href="#cite_note-169">[169]</a> from watching many of the playoff games that they wanted to see, as all playoff games had been broadcast nationally<a href="#cite_note-170">[170]</a> for decades. Costas added that both the divisional series and the League Championship Series now merited scarcely higher priority than regional coverage provided for a <a href="/wiki/Big_Ten_Conference" title="Big Ten Conference">Big Ten</a> <a href="/wiki/College_football" title="College football">football</a> game between <a href="/wiki/University_of_Wisconsin%E2%80%93Madison" title="University of Wisconsin–Madison">Wisconsin</a> and <a href="/wiki/University_of_Michigan" title="University of Michigan">Michigan</a>. When Costas was preparing call the 1995 American League Division Series between Boston-Cleveland for NBC, he told the <a href="/wiki/New_York_Times" class="mw-redirect" title="New York Times">New York Times</a> that "It's baseball's objective to market itself nationally, but TBN makes it a local sport." Costas added "Baseball says the wild card is supposed to save baseball, but TBN shows you as little as possible." According to <a href="/wiki/Curt_Smith_(author)" title="Curt Smith (author)">Curt Smith</a>'s book, The Voice – Mel Allen's Untold Story, the longtime <a href="/wiki/New_York_Yankees" title="New York Yankees">New York Yankees</a> broadcaster and <a href="/wiki/This_Week_in_Baseball" title="This Week in Baseball">This Week in Baseball</a> <a href="/wiki/Mel_Allen" title="Mel Allen">host</a> was quoted as saying "You wonder how anything would be worse [than CBS]. What kind of show cancels a twenty-six-week-season's first fourteen weeks?"<a href="#cite_note-171">[171]</a> (in response to TBN's tagline, "Welcome to the Show"<a href="#cite_note-172">[172]</a><a href="#cite_note-173">[173]</a>). During the 1995 Division Series, the fan frustration with The Baseball Network was so bad that the mere mention of it during the <a href="/wiki/1995_Seattle_Mariners_season" title="1995 Seattle Mariners season">Mariners</a>–<a href="/wiki/1995_New_York_Yankees_season" title="1995 New York Yankees season">Yankees</a> <a href="/wiki/1995_American_League_Division_Series" title="1995 American League Division Series">ALDS</a> from public address announcer <a href="/wiki/Tom_Hutyler" title="Tom Hutyler">Tom Hutyler</a> at <a href="/wiki/Seattle" title="Seattle">Seattle</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Kingdome" title="Kingdome">Kingdome</a> brought boos<a href="#cite_note-174">[174]</a> from most of the crowd. To further put things into perspective, 55%<a href="#cite_note-175">[175]</a> of the country was able to get the American League Championship Series (<a href="/wiki/1995_Cleveland_Indians_season" title="1995 Cleveland Indians season">Cleveland</a>-Seattle) while 45% got the National League Championship Series (<a href="/wiki/1995_Atlanta_Braves_season" title="1995 Atlanta Braves season">Atlanta</a>-<a href="/wiki/1995_Cincinnati_Reds_season" title="1995 Cincinnati Reds season">Cincinnati</a>) for at least the first two games on ABC. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Production_overview">Production overview</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Baseball_Network&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Production overview">edit</a>]</div> While ABC and NBC would provide some production personnel and their own announcers<a href="#cite_note-176">[176]</a><a href="#cite_note-177">[177]</a> for the games,<a href="#cite_note-178">[178]</a><a href="#cite_note-179">[179]</a> all of would be coordinated from the office of Ken Schanzer,<a href="#cite_note-180">[180]</a><a href="#cite_note-181">[181]</a><a href="#cite_note-182">[182]</a> the chief executive officer of The Baseball Network and former executive vice president for <a href="/wiki/NBC_Sports" title="NBC Sports">NBC Sports</a>. The graphics, camera placements, and audio quality were intended on looking and sounding about the same on both networks. When critiquing The Baseball Network's coverage of the 1995 postseason, Jerry Trecker of the <a href="/wiki/Hartford_Courant" title="Hartford Courant">Hartford Courant</a> wrote<a href="#cite_note-183">[183]</a> that the broadcasts suffered from having too many men in the booth, sloppy camera work, and a lack of consistency in graphics. Trecker also felt that the ABC and NBC crews during the World Series, spent too much time in story-telling and not enough in nuts-and-bolts game setup. Instead, the coverage according to Trecker, proceeded as if fans have followed the game with the same attention as in the past. As for the graphics, Trecker argued that not only were the <a href="/wiki/Score_bug" title="Score bug">game graphics</a> provided by The Baseball Network not there all the time as was the case with <a href="/wiki/ESPN_Major_League_Baseball" title="ESPN Major League Baseball">ESPN's</a>, but it was too big. Trecker would however, praise ABC's production of the <a href="/wiki/1995_Major_League_Baseball_All-Star_Game" title="1995 Major League Baseball All-Star Game">1995 All-Star Game</a><a href="#cite_note-184">[184]</a> in <a href="/wiki/Globe_Life_Park_in_Arlington" class="mw-redirect" title="Globe Life Park in Arlington">Arlington</a>. He said that the broadcast crew of <a href="/wiki/Al_Michaels" title="Al Michaels">Al Michaels</a>, <a href="/wiki/Jim_Palmer" title="Jim Palmer">Jim Palmer</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Tim_McCarver" title="Tim McCarver">Tim McCarver</a> paced their broadcast as if they had never been away, and the different looks, especially ground level cameras, had always been a trademark of effective work by ABC. ABC also according to him, made effective use of graphics to recap season leaders. <a href="/wiki/ESPN_on_ABC" title="ESPN on ABC">ABC Sports'</a> technical coverage as a whole, included<a href="#cite_note-185">[185]</a> 21 cameras from all <a href="/wiki/Camera_angle" title="Camera angle">vantage points</a>, including one in the <a href="/wiki/Goodyear_Blimp" title="Goodyear Blimp">Goodyear Blimp</a>, and an unmanned camera directly above home plate. Coaches would wear <a href="/wiki/Wireless_microphone" title="Wireless microphone">wireless microphones</a>. Trecker did however, point out that times, the broadcasters seemed to be ahead of the production people, especially when they wanted to talk about <a href="/wiki/Raul_Mondesi" class="mw-redirect" title="Raul Mondesi">Raul Mondesi</a>'s speed getting to a drive into the right field corner. They never showed it. Trecker also believed that ABC's usage of dugout reporters (in this case, <a href="/wiki/Lesley_Visser" title="Lesley Visser">Lesley Visser</a>, <a href="/wiki/John_Saunders_(journalist)" title="John Saunders (journalist)">John Saunders</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Rick_Dempsey" title="Rick Dempsey">Rick Dempsey</a>), even in showcase games like the All-Star Game, was overkill. Visser in particular, was singled out for asked such lengthy questions of <a href="/wiki/1995_Los_Angeles_Dodgers_season" title="1995 Los Angeles Dodgers season">Los Angeles Dodgers</a> pitcher <a href="/wiki/Hideo_Nomo" title="Hideo Nomo">Hideo Nomo</a> that it was almost farcical when his answers came back in translation. For the 1995 World Series,<a href="#cite_note-186">[186]</a> ABC and NBC shared 17 cameras and 13 tape machines, two of the <a href="/wiki/Slow_motion" title="Slow motion">"Super Slo-Mo"</a> variety. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Sponsorships">Sponsorships</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Baseball_Network&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Sponsorships">edit</a>]</div> Among the key sponsors for The Baseball Network were <a href="/wiki/Anheuser-Busch" title="Anheuser-Busch">Anheuser-Busch</a>,<a href="#cite_note-187">[187]</a> <a href="/wiki/MCI_Inc." title="MCI Inc.">MCI Inc.</a>,<a href="#cite_note-188">[188]</a> <a href="/wiki/Sherwin-Williams" title="Sherwin-Williams">Sherwin-Williams</a>,<a href="#cite_note-189">[189]</a> <a href="/wiki/Texaco" title="Texaco">Texaco</a>,<a href="#cite_note-190">[190]</a> and <a href="/wiki/Russell_Athletic_(brand)" class="mw-redirect" title="Russell Athletic (brand)">Russell Athletic</a>.

According to Busch Media president Tony Ponturo, Anheuser-Busch liked The Baseball Network's idea of broadcasting games, including the Division Series and League Championship Series regionally instead of to the entire nation all at once. Other sponsors for The Baseball Network included <a href="/wiki/Gillette" title="Gillette">Gillette</a>,<a href="#cite_note-Keisser-191">[191]</a> <a href="/wiki/Avis_Car_Rental" title="Avis Car Rental">Avis</a> (who paid The Baseball Network approximately $6.5 million<a href="#cite_note-192">[192]</a>), <a href="/wiki/Chevrolet" title="Chevrolet">Chevrolet</a>, <a href="/wiki/Fruit_of_the_Loom" title="Fruit of the Loom">Fruit of the Loom</a>, <a href="/wiki/Gatorade" title="Gatorade">Gatorade</a>,<a href="#cite_note-193">[193]</a> <a href="/wiki/General_Motors" title="General Motors">General Motors</a><a href="#cite_note-194">[194]</a> (who was expected to pay The Baseball Network at least $40 million), <a href="/wiki/Upper_Deck_Company" title="Upper Deck Company">Upper Deck</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Toyota" title="Toyota">Toyota</a>.<a href="#cite_note-195">[195]</a> Chevrolet in particular, sponsored the <a href="/wiki/Most_valuable_player" title="Most valuable player">"player of the game"</a> award that would be announced towards the end of the telecasts. All in all, The Baseball Network was said<a href="#cite_note-196">[196]</a> to have more than 20 corporate sponsors and advertisers. In the event of a strike, these sponsors either had the option of taking back the money that they otherwise, would've used to support The Baseball Network and be able to spend it elsewhere or, they would've been able to delay any spending on baseball telecasts until the strike was resolved. At the time of the actual <a href="/wiki/1994%E2%80%9395_Major_League_Baseball_strike" title="1994–95 Major League Baseball strike">strike</a>'s start on August 12, 1994, The Baseball Network was reportedly able to sell approximately $130 million in advertisement time. Unfortunately, about $100 million of that was expected to run through the entire postseason, including the <a href="/wiki/1994_World_Series" title="1994 World Series">World Series</a>, which would ultimately be canceled on September 14, 1994. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Downfall_and_demise">Downfall and demise</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Baseball_Network&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Downfall and demise">edit</a>]</div> The long-term plans for The Baseball Network began to crumble after players and owners <a href="/wiki/1994%E2%80%9395_Major_League_Baseball_strike" title="1994–95 Major League Baseball strike">went on strike</a><a href="#cite_note-197">[197]</a> on August 12, 1994.<a href="#cite_note-198">[198]</a><a href="#cite_note-199">[199]</a> In addition to the cancellation of <a href="/wiki/1994_World_Series" title="1994 World Series">that year's World Series</a>,<a href="#cite_note-200">[200]</a><a href="#cite_note-201">[201]</a> ABC was denied its remaining Baseball Night in America telecasts and NBC was shut out of its game broadcast slate (which in 1994, was scheduled to begin on August 26<a href="#cite_note-202">[202]</a>) altogether.

Under the terms of the agreement, it could be voided by any party if the venture did not produce a minimum of $330 million in revenue over the first two years.<a href="#cite_note-208">[208]</a> ABC Sports president Dennis Swanson, in announcing the dissolution of The Baseball Network, said:<a href="#cite_note-209">[209]</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">The fact of the matter is, Major League Baseball seems incapable at this point in time, of living with any longterm relationships, whether it's with fans, with players, with the political community in <a href="/wiki/Washington,_D.C." title="Washington, D.C.">Washington</a>, with the advertising community here in <a href="/wiki/Manhattan" title="Manhattan">Manhattan</a>, or with its TV partners.</blockquote> Others would argue that a primary reason for its failure was its abandoning of localized markets in favor of more lucrative and stable advertising contracts afforded by turning to a national model of broadcasting, similar to the <a href="/wiki/NFL_on_television" title="NFL on television">National Football League's television package</a>, which focuses on localized games, with one or two "national" games. The Baseball Network's contract stipulated that negotiations could only take place with NBC and ABC<a href="#cite_note-210">[210]</a> for 45 days, starting on August 15, 1995. But with NBC and ABC's refusal to continue after the 1995 season, baseball had to look at its future options.<a href="#cite_note-211">[211]</a> In October 1995, when it was a known fact that ABC and NBC were going to end their television deal/joint venture with Major League Baseball, preliminary talks rose about CBS returning.<a href="#cite_note-212">[212]</a><a href="#cite_note-213">[213]</a> It was rumored that CBS would show Thursday night games<a href="#cite_note-214">[214]</a> (more specifically, a package of <a href="/wiki/West_Coast_of_the_United_States" title="West Coast of the United States">West Coast</a> <a href="/wiki/Interleague_play" title="Interleague play">interleague games</a> scheduled for the 11:30 Eastern/8:30 Pacific Time slot) while <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_on_Fox" class="mw-redirect" title="Major League Baseball on Fox">Fox</a> would show Saturday afternoon games. CBS and Fox were also rumored to share rights to the postseason. In the end, however, CBS's involvement did not come to pass and NBC became Fox's over-the-air national television partner. Whereas each team earned about $14 million in 1990 under CBS, the later television agreement with NBC and Fox beginning in 1996 earned each team about $6.8 million.<a href="#cite_note-215">[215]</a> To salvage the remains of the partnership, ABC and NBC elected to share coverage<a href="#cite_note-216">[216]</a> of the 1995 postseason<a href="#cite_note-217">[217]</a> including the <a href="/wiki/1995_World_Series" title="1995 World Series">World Series</a>.<a href="#cite_note-218">[218]</a> ABC<a href="#cite_note-219">[219]</a> wound up broadcasting Games 1, 4, and 5 of 1995 World Series<a href="#cite_note-TBNTales-129">[129]</a> while NBC would broadcast Games 2,<a href="#cite_note-220">[220]</a> 3,<a href="#cite_note-221">[221]</a> and 6<a href="#cite_note-222">[222]</a> (which turned out to be the decisive game).

The Baseball Network generated only about $5.5 million per team in revenue for each of the two years that it operated. To put things into proper perspective, in 1993 alone, CBS generated about $14.7 million per team. Much of this could possibly be traced back to the strike causing a huge drop in revenue, which in return caused baseball salaries to decrease by approximately $140,000 on average in 1995.

ESPN's Major League Baseball contract was not affected then, but would take a hit in <a href="/wiki/1998_NFL_season" title="1998 NFL season">1998</a> with the new National Football League contract.

As far as the primary announce teams for The Baseball Network were concerned, they mostly went their separate ways. Al Michaels remained at ABC until 2006 (his final assignment for ABC Sports was <a href="/wiki/Super_Bowl_XL" title="Super Bowl XL">Super Bowl XL</a>), when he moved to NBC to become the voice of their <a href="/wiki/NBC_Sunday_Night_Football" title="NBC Sunday Night Football">Sunday night NFL coverage</a>.

According to Costas, while he originally wanted to work with Kubek again, NBC simply wanted to go into a different direction after being away from baseball for nearly five years. Prior to Game 3 of the <a href="/wiki/1995_World_Series" title="1995 World Series">1995 World Series</a>, <a href="/wiki/1995_Cleveland_Indians_season" title="1995 Cleveland Indians season">Cleveland Indians</a> slugger <a href="/wiki/Albert_Belle" title="Albert Belle">Albert Belle</a><a href="#cite_note-269">[269]</a> unleashed a <a href="/wiki/Profanity" title="Profanity">profanity</a>-laced tirade at NBC reporter Hannah Storm as she was waiting in the Indians' dugout for a prearranged interview with Indians lead-off man, <a href="/wiki/Kenny_Lofton" title="Kenny Lofton">Kenny Lofton</a>. On the same day, Belle snapped at a photographer near the first base line during batting practice. Belle was ultimately fined US$50,000 for his behavior towards Storm. This particular World Series was remembered for baseball television history being made twice by Storm. Prior to Game 2, she became the first female sportscaster to serve as solo host of a World Series game, and after Game 6, she would be the first female sportscaster to preside over the presentation of the Commissioner's Trophy to the World Series champions. <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th>Event </th> <th>Network </th> <th>Teams </th> <th><a href="/wiki/Play-by-play" class="mw-redirect"
