Major US telco T-Mobile USA and Major League Baseball (MLB) have enhanced their mobile video partnership for four more years.

T-Mobile is offering a year’s subscription of MLB.TV and the MLB At Bat app’s premium features—a $118.99 value, to mark the agreement. And, as the official wireless sponsor of MLB, the carrier will continue as the title sponsor of the T-Mobile Home Run Derby during All-Star Week. Also, starting this year, T-Mobile is now the official wireless sponsor of Little League International.

“We love baseball, and clearly, so do our customers. They streamed nearly 3 million hours of baseball with MLB.TV in 2018 – two times more than the year prior,” said John Legere, CEO of T-Mobile. “Locking in four more years with MLB means four more years of major-league perks...we’re excited to keep connecting with fans through the game we all love, and show our support in even more ways – starting with Little League.”

“As a key innovator in their industry, T-Mobile has also been an instrumental partner of Major League Baseball since 2013,” said Noah Garden, MLB EVP, Business & Sales. “We are thrilled to expand our partnership to include Little League, allowing the Un-carrier to enhance fan experiences in youth sports communities while we continue to be game-changers for all fans, nationwide.”
