Alex and Bobby talk with Ted Waechter, organizer with UNITE HERE Local 2, about the recent strike vote among Oracle Park concessions workers and what they’re demanding from the Giants. Then they try to break down MLB’s proposed changes to service time and arbitration, and look at how the rise of streaming spells danger for regional sports networks — and the teams that profit off them.
