Television coverage this summer for the Tigers and Brewers is up in the air. Detroit, Milwaukee and seven other Major League teams canceled their contracts with FanDuel Sports yesterday.

If Main Street reorganizes, the teams could sign new contracts. If not, MLB says its own network will step in to cover the games.
