ESPN is going to begin airing Korean baseball games

[NDallasRuss]

You're going to have to wake up early, or stay up late.

"ESPN announced a deal Monday to air Korea Baseball Organization games six days per week, starting with Opening Day on Tuesday:"



"The broadcasts will feature experienced MLB commentators working remotely, including Karl Ravech, Jessica Mendoza and Eduardo Perez."

Will not watch.

It's live sports. I'll at least grab a beer and watch the 1am games.

Are they sponsored by Pepsi?

Ahh, yeah. I didn't go back past the first page. The tweet I linked was from after the last post of the other thread, so I thought it was new news.

As penance, here are additional Korean baseball cheerleaders.

I'm DVRing opening Day. Depending on if I enjoy it. Will continue to DVR. AA baseball which is what KBO is the equivalent to. Is better than no baseball.

If I can bet on it, I'll watch. Cheerleaders help

ESPN circling the drain...

I’m going for the Busan Lotte Giants. It’s a working class port town that is the “baseball capital” of Korea, but the least successful of the old teams, last winning in 1991. That checks my boxes. I posted this in another thread. Apparently hot chicken is to Korean ball, what hot dogs are to American. “Would” on the beer. “Would not” on the roasted squid jerky:
