Fox sets MLB booth

Harold Reynolds and Tom Verducci will join Joe Buck in the booth for Fox’s Major League Baseball coverage this season. Tim McCarver retired after the World Series as the network’s top color commentator. Reynolds, a former two-time All-Star second baseman for the Seattle Mariners, has been a studio analyst for MLB Network since its launch in 2009 and will remain in that role. He and Verducci have worked together for MLB Network, and a Fox Sports executive said their chemistry helped them click with Buck during a practice run of the three-man booth. Verducci will also continue to write for Sports Illustrated. – AP
