MLB Agrees in Settlement to Expand Web TV Packages

Associated Press: Just as a trial was to begin, Major League Baseball and a group of its fans who had sued reached an agreement to expand the menu of online packages for televised games and lower prices. The deal came weeks after baseball’s lawyers said for the first time the league was going to let fans buy single-team online TV packages. In the past, viewers who didn’t live in their favored teams’ home markets had to buy access to every televised MLB game included in the national plan.
