The Los Angeles Dodgers can try to sell future television rights to the team’s baseball games months earlier than their current contract with Fox Sports allows, a judge ruled.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Kevin Gross in Wilmington, Delaware, yesterday overruled Fox’s objection to letting the team negotiate with Fox’s competitors early. The TV rights could be worth about $100 million a year, a consultant for Fox said in court.
