Diamond Sports Group (“Diamond”) today announced a new, multi-year market linear and digital rights agreement with the Los Angeles Angels through which Diamond will continue as the Angels’ exclusive local media partner.

Per the agreement, FanDuel Sports Network West will remain the home of the Angels, broadcasting all in-market games that are not exclusively televised nationally, as well as pre and postgame shows and original programming. In addition, the agreement includes rights for Diamond to distribute programming direct-to-consumer (DTC) in market. Fans will now be able to stream games and other programming on the FanDuel Sports Network app by authenticating with their pay TV credentials or purchasing a DTC subscription. More information regarding DTC subscriptions, including pricing, will be announced ahead of the upcoming 2025 season.

David Preschlack, CEO of Diamond, stated: “The Angels are a valued partner, and we are thrilled to extend and deepen our relationship. We look forward to expanding our reach by delivering games to fans on a DTC basis to provide flexibility to fans. With a strong platform supported by our partnership agreements, we look forward to providing high-quality local sports broadcasts to passionate Angels fans.”

Arte Moreno, Angels Owner, stated: “One of our top priorities when we began discussing the future of Angels broadcast was to provide our fans with a quality viewing experience while offering them new dynamic avenues to access Angels Baseball. We are proud that this new agreement with Diamond and FanDuel Sports Network allows our Club to reach more fans than ever before.”

Financial details of the agreement were not disclosed. FanDuel Sports Network West, formerly known as Bally Sports West, is a joint venture part owned by entities affiliated with the Angels.
