The partnership is aimed at growing ratings for both MASN and the Big3, and it also includes a community impact element.

John Angelos, chair, chief executive, and managing partner of both MASN and Major League Baseball’s Baltimore Orioles, said: “We have seen Cube and Big3 energize communities across the country. We are in the community economic impact business, creating world-class live media, sports, music, and destination entertainment projects that drive it, and we expect this partnership will generate a new audience, more live local events, and change the way our games and leagues connect.”

Big3 founder Ice Cube added: “The addition of MASN to our media partnership family is a tremendous milestone for the Big3. This collaboration allows us to bring more of Big3's Fireball to an area of the country that has shown us tons of love.”
