Every game on the same channel? How might MLB sway Dodgers to go along?

If you want to watch every Dodgers game in 2026, you'll likely need access to all of these outlets: SportsNet LA, Fox, ESPN, NBC, Peacock and Apple TV. That is not, shall we say, fan-friendly. Baseball's holy grail is this: One place to watch your team, and every team, wherever you are. One price. No blackouts. No need to decide whether to pay up for a subscription to an outlet you may never watch after the game ends.
