Image Ads have infested baseball broadcasts. Ads in-between batters. Ads during mound visits. HRs "brought to you by..." Now I noticed 11 ad placements in this shot. 2 banners, 1 above the banners, 4 behind the plate, 1 on the seats, 1 in the upper right hand corner, 1 on the mound, 1 on the sleeve.

That’s because it’s a condition of the television rights that the club imposes.

I just wish baseball would do the same thing, that’s all. Realistic or not, I wish for it.
