After cutting short a previous agreement, the sides are in advanced talks on a new pact that would incorporate MLB.tv into ESPN’s streaming service.

ESPN and Major League Baseball just can’t quit one another. Months after the two sides agreed to opt out of the seven-year, $550 million annual deal that began in 2021, they are reportedly about to agree on a new one.

ESPN and Major League Baseball have a framework agreement in place that would give ESPN the exclusive rights to sell out-of-market regular-season games over the next three years, according to a report from The Athletic on Thursday.
