Does this mean an Apple game isn't available to the local markets?

That's the question I want answered as well.  Does exclusive mean Apple TV only and no other access?  If fans still get a local broadcast then it's not a big issue.

How much does Apple TV+ cost?  Honestly not even aware of what it is.  I assume this is something we'll need to subscribe to get access to the handful of Sox games that are on this each year? 

Apple TV the service is like another Hulu,  Netflix, Disney+.  You'd have to subscribe just to get the few Sox games they would get exclusive rights to.  I'm sure the deal has been in the works for a long time, but announcing what amounts to less/more difficult access to baseball during a lockout already threatening a large chunk of the season is damned tone deaf.  We need more legal online access, not more blackouts.

Apple TV is $4.99 a month after a 7 day free trial and you may need hardware to run it. My Sony Tv runs android Tv and so Apple TV is the one service I can’t get on it.

Yah. Pay enough for mlb.tv; crazy to take away access.

Pretty cheap at least.

With the carrier fees that go into my cable bill already, I will be damned before pay Apple money for games I should already get and that they are taking from me.
