BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., July 11 (UPI) -- Fox, Turner Sports and Major League Baseball have made an agreement that will keep the World Series on Fox and also create a game-of-the-week package on Turner.
Fox will pay around $250 million a year over seven years for its baseball package, which includes the All-Star Game, a Saturday exclusive game-of-the-week package and one League Championship Series per season. It will air the National League series on even numbered years and the American League on odd years, TVWeek.com reported Tuesday.
Turner Sports will have a non-exclusive package of Sunday afternoon games that will be blacked out in local markets. Turner will also air the divisional championship series.
Negotiations continue between Major League Baseball, Fox and Turner to determine which network will air the second League Championship Series.
