If you’re a Major League Baseball fan, you’ve doubtless been experiencing some anxiety in recent weeks thanks to the ongoing decline of the regional sports network (Rsn) market. Many MLB teams see their games primarily distributed by RSNs, and the filing of bankruptcy by Bally Sports' parent company and the departure of Warner Bros. Discovery from its RSNs have left fans with tons of questions.
Thankfully for devotees of America’s Game, there will still be one contest to watch nearly every day of the first month of the season on ESPN+. Starting on Opening Day and running throughout the month of April, ESPN+ will feature some of the top teams in the league as they try to get their regular season off on the right foot. Local blackout restrictions do apply, so if your local team is your favorite this isn’t the best way to see their games.

The Washington Nationals are the 2019 World Series champions, beating the Houston Astros 6-2 in a tense, well-played Game 7 to take the title at Minute Maid Park in Houston.
The Nationals victory continued the oddball string of visiting teams winning every game in this Series. It was DC’s first baseball title since 1924, when the Washington Senators won. Washington was the oldest team in baseball and started off the year 19-31, but turned it around. Tonight, they stand atop Major League Baseball.
Pitcher Stephen Strasburg was the World Series Mvp. He won two games during the Series, and now faces a monumental decision. In three days, he can opt out of a contract that will pay him $100 million over four years and become a free agent. That could mean an even larger payday.
The Astros took the early lead, powered by the strong pitching of Zack Greinke and a second-inning home...
