Because the FRS are playing two teams this week from the top two TV markets in the country national sports coverage will be heavy for the next week. The Angels from the left coast are in Boston for a three game set mid week and Wednesday night’s contest will be ESPN. ESPN will also show Friday’s game from the House That Ruth Built. Fox has the Sox – Yankees tilt listed for Saturday broadcast, but I may not see that as they also list the Braves – Nationals and they try to regionalize their coverage.
As a bonus it looks like ESPN is going to show tomorrow’s contest between the White Sox and the Red Sox which is a make-up from a rained out August 14th game. I thought I heard one of the FRS’s broadcasters say last week sometime that Chicago was thinking of forfeiting the game because they didn’t want to fly into Boston, play a game and then have to fly back home on what was supposed to be an off day.
So I’m either in for an exciting TV week or a very disappointing one. I’ll let you know.
