The Yankees’ greed and arrogance have been on full display during Aaron Judge’s home run chase, JimmyTraina writes
to allow the YES Network to air the game locally in New York.
These are the same greedy Yankees who have such disdain for their fans that they took 20 games that have aired on over-the-air free TV for decades and sold them to Amazon Prime Video, forcing their fans to pay to stream those 20 games, while said fans already pay for cable in order to get the YES Network.
It also shows that while everyone wants to tell you that streaming games is no different than watching games via cable, that’s clearly not true. The Yankees didn’t make an effort to get Thursday night’s game, which aired nationally on Fox, on the YES Network..
Now, the Yankees will spin this with statements about trying to get Friday’s game on YES for the fans, but only a complete and total fool would believe them.One person who was not fooled, though, was legendary 84-year-old John Sterling, who called the fly ball perfectly from the second it left the bat on WFAN radio in New York.4.
