The Last Dance only airs on Sunday nights, so something has to fill the sports void over the remaining six days. No, I’m not talking about the NFL Draft. Per ESPN’s Joon Lee, “select games from the final 10 days of the MLB The Show Player’s League, including its playoff tournament, will be broadcast on ESPN, ESPN2, FS1 and MLB Network starting Thursday night.”
ESPN2 will feature some of the final regular-season games this Thursday and Saturday, with MLB Network also picking up some Saturday games. The round-robin structure will move to best-of once the postseason hits in May.
