NBCSN's Rebecca Lowe To Begin Maternity Leave After Sunday's Match

NBCSN EPL studio host Rebecca Lowe is "eight and a half months pregnant" and will "begin her maternity leave" after today's Manchester City-Manchester United match. Since being hired in '13, Lowe has "become the defining face" of the net's EPL coverage. NBC EPL play-by-play announcer Arlo White will "fill in for Lowe in the studio for two weeks," while EPL commentator Steve Bower will "fill in for five." NBC Sports Group Soccer Coordinating Producer Pierre Moossa said, "It's impossible to replace her. She's really the glue on the set with the announcers" (N.Y. TIMES, 3/20).
