Possibility Of Sponsor Decals On Helmets Increases For 2022 MLB Postseason

The owners and players' union agreed to push the start of the regular season out one week. There are two Wild Card teams in the American and National Leagues. The league has the right to add a sponsor logo decal to batting helmets worn by the teams. It's unclear what the league could fetch at this point for such a sponsorship deal. If all these series go the maximum number of games, it would provide 47 national telecasts to a decals sponsor. MLB hasn't announced whether they will be using the option in new labor agreement for the helmet decALS. They haven't also announced that they aren't going with them.
