Diamond Sports Group could be down to broadcasting only one Major League Baseball team's games next season. The operator of the Bally Sports regional sports networks said during a hearing that it will cut loose the seven teams it has under contract for the 2025 season. Diamond plans to void the contracts of the Detroit Tigers and Tampa Bay Rays and to attempt to rework the deals with the five franchises that are partial owners of their RSNs — the Cincinnati Reds, Kansas City Royals, Los Angeles Angels, Miami Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals. That would leave the Atlanta Braves as the only franchise whose contract would be unchanged.
