18 Dezembro 2024 - 10:00AM
The Atlanta Braves (Nasdaq: BATRA, BATRK) and Gray Media (NYSE:
GTN) have agreed on a multi-year partnership starting in 2025 for
Gray to simulcast 15 regular season games alongside FanDuel Sports
Network, the Braves’ rightsholder partner. The 15 regular season
games will be spread across the season, and selected games will be
announced at a later date. Gray will also exclusively
produce and air 10 spring training games.
The deal will increase the reach of the selected games,
providing a new way to watch Braves baseball for more than 15
million households. Gray will carry the Braves in 24 markets across
six states of the Braves’ home television territory – one of the
largest in professional sports – and allow more fans to watch than
ever before.
The games will broadcast over-the-air on Peachtree TV Atlanta’s
CW (WPCH 17.1) and Peachtree Sports Network (PSN) in Atlanta and
throughout the Southeast through Gray’s network of broadcast
stations, including Palmetto Sports & Entertainment Network,
the Tennessee Valley Sports & Entertainment Network, and
portions of the Gulf Coast Sports & Entertainment Network. A
select number of games will air on some of Gray’s ABC, CBS, FOX,
NBC, and CW affiliates.

“We are thrilled to partner with Gray Media to offer our fans
more opportunities to watch a simulcast of certain games and access
our content all across the Southeast,” said Atlanta Braves
President & CEO Derek Schiller. “This partnership makes Braves
baseball even more accessible, allowing fans throughout Braves
Country the ability to watch in a way that best suits them, whether
that is on cable, local TV, or streaming.”
“Gray Media is thrilled to partner with the Atlanta Braves to
bring baseball back to local broadcast television across the
Southeast,” Gray Chairman and CEO Hilton Howell said. “We are proud
to give Braves fans a new way to watch their favorite players and
one of the best franchises in baseball history.”
The Braves and Gray will work together to develop ancillary
programming to bring fans closer than ever to their favorite team
throughout the year. Potentially featuring Braves players, coaches,
and alumni, this additional content will expand opportunities for
viewers to follow the team beyond live game coverage and connect
with the Braves on a new level.
More information on the selected games as well as the additional
content will be released prior to the start of the season.
