NEW YORK — Major League Baseball has agreed to push back the start time of a potential World Series Game 6 by eight minutes to allow Democrat Barack Obama to purchase a half-hour of air time on the Fox network.
Baseball spokesman Pat Courtney said Thursday the game time would now be set for 6:35 p.m. MDT on Oct. 29.
The Obama presidential campaign said Oct. 9 it had bought the 6-6:30 p.m. slot on CBS and NBC. If requested, Fox said it would be willing to make similar time available to John McCain’s campaign. The Associated Press
