Ridgewood NJ, Yankees fans in Long Island, New Jersey and Connecticut, including Ridgewood , rejoice. Optimum customers will be able to watch the AL wild-card game against the Twins on Tuesday, as Altice USA, which owns the cable provider, and Disney have reached a new deal. An agreement was made by the initial deadline of 5 p.m. Sunday.The two companies were renegotiating their contract and deadlocked over how much Altice USA would Optimum pay to re-transmit Walt Disney Company channels.Disney owns ESPN, which will air the Yankees vs. Twins one-game playoff on Tuesday evening, as well as multiple ABC channels.
The thought of listening to Tom Petty songs for the next week has me a little unnerved.
