I get that baseball is a more regional sport so oftentimes national marketing isn't as effective, but it wasn't ALWAYS that way. And that again speaks to the Yankee effect; Jeter has always had a major national presence.
Beyond that, let's presume only regional impact - then aren't you all the better served by going to major media markets where YOUR fans will want to see you in commercials? At that point, more TVs is better. Get yourself to NYY.

I mean, if that's the case, everyone should be in NY right?
Football just has such a larger audience. Hell, look at Russell Wilson. He's in Seattle and he's a national dude.
The Yankees will always have a bigger audience, you'd think, but same with Chicago, who has all these young stars. They just don't seem to be a national thing at this point, and not many Yankees are either.
