There's a secret hack to fix Apple TV's Toronto Blue Jays broadcasts

The Toronto Blue Jays experience on Apple TV has caught the ire of fans.

Obviously, it forces fans away from the usual Sportsnet broadcast to a paid subscription service. Aside from that, there have been a growing number of complaints about the broadcast team on Apple TV.

During the Jays' most recent game on the streaming platform, things got so bad that a Reddit page started trending called "Does Apple TV hate the Blue Jays?" It cited the fact that Apple TV's broadcast crew consistently criticized the Blue Jays, with some users pointing out the American bias.

Thankfully, some fans have discovered a hack on Apple TV to improve the subpar experience.

Fans can toggle between the Apple TV broadcast crew and the local AM radio feed for their preferred team.

A few fans mentioned this in the trending Reddit post, and Toronto-based content creator Steve Cipollone filmed a tutorial on how to make the switch on social media.

Goodbye, U.S. based broadcast crew. Hello, Ben Shulman and Chris Leroux.

In case you haven't picked up on the hack, it could come in handy one more time this season. The Blue Jays have one more Apple TV game left on their schedule, on Friday, Aug. 28 against the Seattle Mariners.

And who knows, perhaps the ALCS rematch could have some postseason implications, with both the Blue Jays and Mariners hanging around in the playoff picture.

However, both teams are trending in different directions, with Toronto pushing their way back into the playoff picture, while Seattle is fading, having lost eight of their last 10 games.
