Sinclair subsidiary Diamond Sports Group has decided to no longer pay Major League Baseball's San Diego Padres and has dropped the team from the Bally Sports regional sports networks portfolio.
“Diamond Sports Group (DSG) has decided not to provide additional funding to the San Diego RSN that would enable it to make the rights payment to the San Diego Padres during the grace period and will no longer be broadcasting Padres games after Tuesday, May 30," Diamond said in a statement provided to TV Tech sister brand Next TV Tuesday afternoon.
