NEW YORK — The Yankees are hoping for some Web gems.

New York will become the first Major League Baseball team to offer its television broadcasts on the Internet in its home market under a deal involving the YES Network, MLB Advanced Media and Cablevision Systems Corp.

The deal applies only to Cablevision subscribers who get YES and Cablevision's Optimum online service. They will be able to get live Yankees telecasts on their computers starting July 8. It will cost $49.95 for the rest of the season or $19.95 for any 30-day period.
