Netflix is teaming up with Major League Baseball for two new projects about the Boston Red Sox. For the first time, Netflix will follow an MLB team over the course of a full season. This docuseries will feature unprecedented access to Red Sox players, coaches and executives throughout the 2024 season (premiering in 2025). And later this year, Netflix will premiere a brand-new documentary looking back at the historic 2004 Red Sox season, which culminated in the franchise’s first World Series title in 86 years.
@netflix @MLB @RedSox They know greatness when they see it. Right @art_stapleton ?
The line between streamers and live sports broadcasters continues to converge. First the WWE/Netflix deal. Now this. Eventually, big tech (Google, Apple, Amazon, maybe Netflix) will own the live sports broadcast rights outright. That will be the end of legacy cable. And the start of a new era.
@netflix @RedSox @MLB Thank you @netflix! Can I buy the team at Netflix a @ForgedStout ?
