This trend is driven by a growing preference for on-the-go and on-demand content, as well as a desire for more interactive and personalized experiences. Additionally, there has been an increase in the consumption of user-generated content, allowing fans to connect with and engage in discussions with like-minded individuals. This shift towards digital media channels also reflects the changing demographic of baseball fans, with younger generations being more accustomed to utilizing digital platforms for their entertainment needs.
