No, you misread the article [USER=652]Alsacs[/USER].

Here is a snippet for you to read so you better understand things...

[I]Despite a lot of fits and starts, MLB has finally arrived at this destination: the big revenue pot at the end of the rainbow of a season played without fans and shortened from 162 games in the time of the coronavirus. MLB receives most of its $1.7 billion in national television revenue during the postseason; [B]expanding the playoffs from the usual 43 games to 65 games will result in an increase of about $100 million[/B], or about $4.5 million a game. ESPN/ABC has signed on to air all the [/I]games in seven of the eight Wild Card Series, with TBS broadcasting the other.

An extra $100 million is a drop in the bucket compared to the massive losses the teams suffered.

I know of no reputable source that thinks MLB teams were profitable in 2020.  If you can provide one, I would love to see it.  Just making things up doesn't work for me.
