"If Frank McCourt wants to boost the sale price of the Dodgers, he ought to include the Dodger Stadium parking lots in the sale instead of tearing up an existing contract with Fox Sports, the television company argued in a court filing late Wednesday.

And, since the sale of the team alone would enable the Dodgers to repay creditors in full, Fox urged the U.S. Bankruptcy Court to deny McCourt's proposal to market the team's television rights as part of the sale process.

"Mr. McCourt is not necessary to this process," the Fox filing read. "He should get out of the way and let everyone return to the business of baseball.""
