MLB and ESPN End Partnership After 2025 Season
Major League Baseball (MLB) and ESPN are parting ways after the 2025 season, as MLB has opted out of its current television deal with the network. The decision comes amid growing dissatisfaction with ESPN’s minimal coverage of baseball, despite the sport’s seven-month season. MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred cited ESPN’s lack of commitment to promoting the sport, including the cancellation of “Baseball Tonight” and limited live game broadcasts, as key reasons for the split. ESPN, which has prioritized NBA and NFL coverage in recent years, has been criticized for neglecting baseball, with fans and analysts alike noting the network’s declining interest in the sport. The move marks the end of a partnership that began in 1990, leaving MLB to seek a new broadcast home starting in 2026. The league aims to find a partner that will provide better exposure and coverage for America’s pastime.
