NatsLady hipped me to this awesome box score:
Was gonna say that ten-run seventh was the problem, but losing 17-9 ain’t exactly great.
Eight RBI for Luis Jimenez. Lots of fun stuff from players who have hung around major league rosters on-and-off. Minor League Baseball: it’s FAN-tastic.
NEW YORK – Major League Baseball has sold its remaining share of a streaming service technology company to the Walt Disney Co. for $900 million.
The sale was disclosed Tuesday in Walt Disney Co.’s annual filing report through the SEC. MLB received the $900 million in exchange for the 15% stake it still had in a company called BAMTech, which originally started as MLB Advanced Media in 2000.
The technology helped MLB become a leader in sports streaming in the 2000s.
Walt Disney Co. has been buying chunks of BAMTech for the past five years and now owns 100% of the company. The National Hockey League sold its 10% share of BAMTech to Walt Disney Co. for a reported $350 million in 2021.
