Night Moves....Off Base

ESPN’s Keith Olbermann called out his “world’s worst” persons in sports: Reds 2B Brandon Phillips for railing against the on-base percentage stat. Olbermann also put on notice Nationals broadcaster F.P. Santangelo for discussing the team’s starting pitchers, including “Matt Scherzer,” who is actually a “21-year-old software developer” in Mexico and not Nationals P Max Scherzer, and the NFL for announcing it will stream the Bills-Jaguars game from London online.

Last night’s 11:00pm ET edition of ESPN’s “SportsCenter” led with Heat-Bucks, followed by Warriors-Trail Blazers, Lakers-Thunder, the possibility of Cubs 3B Kris Bryant making the Opening Day roster and Canadiens-Predators. Last night’s 11:00pm ET edition of FS1’s “Fox Sports Live” led with Spurs-Mavericks, followed by Lakers-Thunder, Warriors-Trail Blazers and Kings-Rangers. The first MLB report on FS1 was an excerpt from an interview with Rockies SS Troy Tulowitzki 40 minutes into the broadcast.
