Comcast Opens Lawsuit Against Orioles

Jan 03, 2006 12:22 AM EST

Comcast SportsNet filed a lawsuit against Major League Baseball, the Baltimore Orioles and their fledgling Mid-Atlantic Sports Network.

Comcast said it will not televise Nationals games on its cable system throughout the Baltimore-Washington region while the suit is being litigated, other than the 76 or so games already scheduled on WDCA-20 (UPN) and nationally televised games on ESPN and Fox. The Philadelphia-based cable company serves 1.65 million subscribers in the Baltimore-Washington region.
