Monday 11th July - ESPN (USA) and BT Sport//ESPN (UK)
Major League Baseball: Home Run Derby 2016 Primary commentary team: Chris Berman, Jessica Mendoza and Aaron Boone Secondary commentary team/Baseball Tonight presentation team: Karl Ravech, Dallas Braden and Tim Kurkjian, with Eduardo Perez fieldside Reporters: Pedro Gomez, with Buster Olney during Baseball Tonight It was a slightly different commentary set-up for the Home Run Derby this year, with the main Chris Berman-lead trio commentating on one batter in most of the ties, with the Karl Ravech-lead quartet calling the batter opening the ties, although Berman's crew handled the whole of the opening match-up and the final. Live coverage was followed by highlights of the earlier MLB Legends & Celebrity Softball All-Star Game, with commentary coming from Adnan Virk and Eduardo Perez. Tuesday 12th July - Fox (USA) The 87th Annual Major League Baseball All-Star Game: American League v National League Chris Myers presented from Petco Park, San Diego alongside Pete Rose, Frank Thomas and Tom Verducci Commentators: Joe Buck and John Smoltz Reporters: Ken Rosenthal and Tom Verducci Pregame Ceremonies: Joe Buck, Matt Vasgersian and Dick Enberg Buck did the pregame player introductions, Vasgersian voiced the video packages that were played into them, while Fox Sports San Diego's Padres announcer Enberg handled the ceremonial events on the field. Chris Myers stood in for Kevin Burkhardt as Fox's host as the former was unwell. BT Sport 1 carried the MLB International coverage of the All-Star Game, with commentary from Matt Vasgersian and Mark DeRosa. All of the MLB All-Star events were available on the BT Sport website and app to subscribers. |

BBC Sport - Open Championship Highlights
Presented by Hazel Irvine Commentary from Peter Allis, Ken Brown, Andrew Cotter, Mark James (Days 1 and 2) and Wayne Grady (Days 3 and 4). Interviews by Rishi Persad. A surprise return for Wayne Grady to the BBC commentary box. I wonder if this was planned or if something happened to Mark James, anyone know? Also Rishi's interviews were done by a 'The Open' branded mike rather than a BBC Sport one, does anyone know were these interviews being used by the R&A website or world feed or something? |

Really enjoyed the call of Dougie Donnelly on the winning putt of Stenson. |

Jim Watt has retired. Excellent boxing summariser in his day, maybe could have been pulled out one or two rounds earlier but will be missed all the same.
http://www.skysports.com/boxing/news...ts-commentator Question is whether Sky will have a new number one summariser, or if they will rotate between the other names they use such as Glenn McCrory, Paul Smith, Matthew Macklin and Paulie Malignaggi. |
