The Bally Sports family of regional sports networks (RSNs) shrank by one team this week. The Arizona Diamondbacks were pulled from Bally Sports Arizona on Tuesday, joining the San Diego Padres as the two teams to see their broadcast rights revert back to the league from Bally Sports’ parent company Diamond Sports Group (Dsg) this week.
While the bankruptcy court proceedings that determined whether or not Dsg would keep the D-backs broadcasting rights dragged on for weeks, the ruling meant that MLB production staff had mere hours to get everything ready and start broadcasting games themselves.

Vanessa Bryant and Chris Chester deserve a total of 75 million in damages because they will always “live in fear” that gruesome photos of their loved ones’ charred remains will surface somewhere following a “clumsy, sloppy and dumb coverup” by Los Angeles County officials, Chester’s lawyer told jurors in his closing argument Tuesday.
The lawyer, Jerry Jackson, said Bryant and Chester deserve 2.5 million each for the emotional distress they’ve already suffered since graphic photos of the Jan. 26, 2020 helicopter crash that killed NBA star Kobe Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna,...
