Facebook Inc. expanded its partnership with Major League Baseball for the 2018 MLB season.
Under the deal, the 25-game package of weekly broadcasts will be distributed exclusively on Facebook Watch in the U.S. via the MLB Live show page, according to a March 9 post on MLB.com. The agreement was unanimously approved by 30 Major League Clubs.
Every game will be available globally on the show page, excluding select international markets.
MLB also will produce and distribute specially curated content in addition to each live game broadcast, including on-demand highlight packages for every regular season game as well as Club-specific weekly recap packages for all 30 MLB teams.
