Four years of an Alex Rodriguez-dominated booth on ESPN‘s Sunday Night Baseball was enough for everyone involved.
Matt Vasgersian is an excellent play-by-play broadcaster, but he didn’t do a great job of controlling the SNB booth over the last four years; the first two of which also included Jessica Mendonza in a three-person booth.
Most of that was because ESPN turned SNB into “The A-Rod Show featuring a baseball game,” and Vasgersian continuing to get a chance to call the top game every week probably depended on continuing to give the three-time American League MVP space to be the star of the show.
