There has been a change in the telecast booth. Orel Hershiser left ESPN to take the color analyst gig with the newly created SportsNet LA which will televise Dodgers game. He has been replaced by Curt Schilling. Dan Shulman will still provide the play-by-play and John Kruk rounds out the trio in the booth. Buster Olney will serve as the telecast’s reporter.
A few days ago, ESPN also released their “Opening Day” schedule. The schedule covers two days with one game on Sunday night and five games to be broadcast the following day.
