I can probably say that the MLB on FX was scrapped for the same reason Toughman on FX was scrapped. Combine poor ratings with limited television exposure and that may explain it all. Also, FOX Sports has utilized FOX Sports Net a lot more for its baseball coverage (i.e. those opening season series in Japan, coverage of the LCS when FOX had NFL doubleheaders).

As soon as I got FX, they lost their baseball coverage. Quite a bummer. I was looking forward to hearing Matt Vasgersian do play by play...he's one of the best young play by play guys in the business.

Hope I answered your query,
Jimmy

Matt Vasgersian works for Channel 4 San Diego. He does San Diego Padres games and he is very good at what he does.

I think FX made a big mastake taking away Baseball on FX
I enjoyed watch The Baseball games on FX and FX started it season in April rather then FOX started there season waylate in June.
