Reduce broadcast delay for sports programming like YouTube just did

YouTube has added a setting to reduce broadcast delay on streaming to make watching sports better. DirecTV Stream has an approximate 1 minute delay which causes issues with spoilers when alerts, texts, live scoring, etc. find their way to the viewer and let them know what is about to happen on the broadcast they are watching. Does Directv have a plan to do the same thing as YouTube? If not they should, this is a big deal. I've been watching the baseball playoffs on MLB.tv over Directv Stream due to this specific issue. DirecTV Please get this done, thanks.
