The MLB has agreed to a seven-year deal with Turner Sports for nearly $3.745
billion at $535 million per season, representing a 65 percent increase over
the previous contract between the two parties.
Turner will try to make their new deal more similar to the one it has with
the NBA with a prime-time weeknight game and a new studio show.
“We are not going to replicate ‘Inside The NBA’ because I don’t think it
is possible to do that,” Warner Media News & Sports chairman Jeff Zucker
said. “That is the premier show in all of sports broadcasting. On the other
hand, I did think there was an opportunity to enhance our baseball studio
show and that was a priority for me, as well.”
Fox has already locked up the long-term rights to the World Series. ESPN's
extension is also being worked upon, though the network prefers less bulk and
more premier games.

跟Turner Sports簽下一張7年37.45億 每年5.35億的轉播合約，上一張相比成長65%
FOX已經長期合作World Series的部分，ESPN也要開始談惹
但華納媒體體育主席Jeff Zucker直接說不可能複製NBA的那種合約因為不太可能做到
因為NBA算是所有運動裡面的頂級賽事，但是增強棒球轉播也是他們的優先事項
ps.NBA在2014年簽下9年240億合約，在世界上僅次於NFL
