MLB Reportedly Generated Record $10.3 Billion in Revenue in 2018
MLB在2018年收入創紀錄: 103億鎂
Major League Baseball generated $10.3 billion in baseball-related revenues in
2018, Forbes' Maury Brown reported Monday.
星期一富比世Maury Brown報導，MLB在2018年棒球相關收入達到103億鎂。
The figure marked an MLB record, topping the $10 billion it earned in 2017.
Brown noted it was the 16th straight year in which MLB set a revenue record.
這創下MLB的紀錄，超過2017年的100億鎂。Brown寫到，MLB連續16年收入創紀錄。
Disney announced in August 2017 it was purchasing a majority stake in BAMTech
from MLB Advanced Media for $1.6 billion. Disney had previously invested $1
billion in BAMTech for a 33 percent stake in August 2016.
迪士尼在2017年八月花了16億鎂，從MLB Advanced Media買下BAMTech的大部分股權。在
2016年八月，迪士尼就花了10億鎂買下BAMTech的33趴股權。
According to Brown, the combined $2.6 billion MLB received wasn't reflected
in its baseball-related revenue and was instead counted as capital.
根據Brown，合計的26億並沒有算在棒球相關收入，而是納入資本額內。
Yahoo Sports' Ben Weinrib noted the state of MLB's finances contrasts with
how teams have approached free agency recently. Collective spending on player
salaries fell by $115.4 million from 2017 to 2018.
雅虎奇摩記者Ben Weinrib寫到，MLB的財務狀態與球團最近花在FA的狀況相反。總共花在
球員的薪水，從2017到2018，下跌了1億1540萬鎂。
MLB attendance declined in 2018 as well. The league averaged fewer than
30,000 fans (28,830) at games for the first time since 2003.
MLB的觀眾入場數在2018年也是下跌。聯盟平均觀眾入場數低於30000人(28,830)，是2003
年來第一次。
Still, television deals will largely ensure MLB continues to make money at
historic levels.
然而，電視轉播權利金將會確保MLB持續賺錢。
Fox, ESPN and Turner Sports will broadcast MLB games through 2021, at which
point the league's seven-year, $5.1 billion contract extension with Fox will
begin. Brown reported MLB is negotiating extensions with ESPN and Turner to
carry on their partnerships beyond 2021 as well.
福斯，ESPN跟Turner運動將會持續轉播MLB的比賽直到2021，之後的轉播合約，福斯會持續
下去，7年51億鎂。Brown報導MLB仍持續與ESPN以及Turner運動協商，希望在2021年後可以
繼續合作下去。
