Media Notes

NBC Sports Chicago will show only six White Sox Spring Training games, and in Chicago, Paul Sullivan writes, "I don’t know why a network partially owned by the Sox doesn’t carry more spring training games." If there was "any spring they should want to show off the product before the season begins, this would be the one." The club "spent the winter making move after move to improve the team, and it would be nice to give fans an opportunity to see what they can do, not to mention hear" White Sox play-by-play announcer Jason Benetti and analyst Steve Stone "perfect their vaudeville act" (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 2/25). 

A PERFECT MATCH: USWNT F Megan Rapinoe is partnering with short-form video platform Quibi to host a new docu-series titled "Prodigy." The series will profile both male and female athletes under the age of 21. Quibi, set to launch April 6, also has a deal with ESPN for a daily sports highlights show, a workout series from Panthers QB Cam Newton and a docu-series produced by Warriors G Stephen Curry (John Ourand, SBJ Media).
