MILWAUKEE — The bankruptcy of Diamond Sports, the parent company of Bally Sports Wisconsin, which carries Brewers games, is a major topic.
TMJ4 Sports Lance Allan asked Major League Baseball (MLB) Commissioner Rob Manfred if he was worried.
“Well, I’m concerned about the RSN situation in general,” MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred said. “We have 14 clubs, the Brewers being one of them that is involved in the Diamond bankruptcy. I spent a lot of time on this particular project. I think the most important thing from a club perspective fans is that no matter what happens in this bankruptcy, Brewer games will be available for fans. I hope Diamond decides to do that. That seems to be a theme today. Fulfilling his contractual obligations. Paying the Brewers and broadcast the games. But if they don’t, we will step in and the games will be available both linearly and digitally.”
On Wednesday, a bankruptcy hearing was held between MLB and Diamond Sports. MLB resumed Padres broadcasts on Wednesday, although a lawyer for Diamond said the company offered to extend the end date to June 30.
