So what does this mean for fans who want to watch the game? It means you will have to get on Facebook to see if the Colorado Rockies can maintain their lead over the Diamondbacks in the race for the National League West crown.
As part of an agreement between Facebook and Major League Baseball, it was decided that one MLB game each week would be shown exclusively on Facebook. Weekday games are chosen that start before 4:10 p.m. (Eastern time) in order for a global audience to be reached through the social media giant. This week, it’s the Rockies and Diamondbacks that will be featured.
