Cretella Pushes Antitrust Reform for Major League Sports
Rep Alberta Cretella outlines a bill to exempt professional baseball football basketball and hockey from antitrust laws. It targets the major league farm system bans and would curb owner control of players and leagues while restricting broadcasting of big league games by minor league clubs. The measure also raises the free agency age to 21 and seeks to define sports exemptions when the House Judiciary Committee weighs the issue.
