There is a ton of money surrounding the 2024 World Series. With the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees kicking off the coveted playoff series this Friday night on Fox (FOX), the hype over both teams is sure to generate plenty of buzz (and revenue) for the network as well as the MLB.
This week on Yahoo Finance Sports Report, host Joe Pompliano goes in-depth about the World Series and why, specifically, the Dodgers vs. Yankees match will likely bring in massive numbers. Not only do these teams have the two highest payrolls in the MLB, but they also play in the two largest media markets in the country (Los Angeles and New York City), and have two of the most famous players in the world in Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani.
“If you’re Major League Baseball or Fox Sports, who is going to be broadcasting this World Series, you could not be happier with the outcome,” Pompliano says.
Plus, we’ve got Jordan Rogers, a sports marketer, joining the show later to discuss the new landscape over at Nike (NKE) with its latest leadership changes, what it means for the sportswear brand, and how it could impact your portfolio.
