In the UK, ESPN UK provided live coverage of five of ESPN USA's seven Opening Week MLB telecasts, with all of them being streamed on the BT Sport app and website. The two later Opening Day games (from Houston and Arizona) were broadcast on BT Sport 1 and were not streamed online. This is an upgrade from last year, when only the first one of the four back-to-back Opening Day games shown on the BT Sport channels was streamed online.
A pre-season press release on the ESPN Mediazone website (I would link to it, but they never seem to work from that site on here) has confirmed the ESPN MLB announcing teams for the new season, which are:
Sunday Night Baseball - Dan Shulman, John Kruk and Curt Schilling, with Buster Olney reporting
Monday Night Baseball - Dave O'Brien and Aaron Boone, with Mark Mulder during the first half of the season and Dallas Braden during the second half of the season
Wednesday Night Baseball - Jon Sciambi and Rick Sutcliffe, with Doug Glanville providing fieldside analysis
It's not confirmed whether Tim Kurkjian (MNB) or Pedro Gomez (WNB) will be returning to their weeknight fieldside reporting roles of past years. Doug Glanville has a slight different role as a co-commentator to most, as while he works as part of a three-man commentary team he doesn't join his colleagues in the booth, but rather sits somewhere fieldside. ESPN are planning to have a few editions of Wednesday Night Baseball with a commentator and four analysts all in different parts of the stadium, something they did at least once last year.
With Barry Larkin having left ESPN during the close season to try to break into MLB management, the Baseball Tonight: Sunday Night Countdown team at Wrigley Field on Opening Day of Karl Ravech, Aaron Boone and Tim Kurkjian will be the regular trio on that show this season. It's a programme I highly recommend; even if you are not stopping up for Sunday Night Baseball, it's a really strong hour-long overview of the other 14 Sunday matches.
