The cable network will keep MLB's Sunday Night Baseball games while exiting its weekday schedule as part of a seven-year deal worth $550 million per year.

Wonder how that will play out if there is the much anticipated player's strike next year?

I don't watch baseball anymore, with the exception of a few minutes here & there on the YouTube "MLB Game of the Week Live."

My dad was an ardent Cubs fan who suffered through MANY bad seasons. When I was very young, he was watching a Cubs-Pirates game on WGN and I decided to become a Pittsburgh fan. I was flying high about 8 years later when "The Family" won it all in '79. In more recent years I haven't followed baseball closely at all. I wouldn't mind seeing the Chicago White Sox go all the way this year.
