Episode 443 of the Sports Media Podcast with Richard Deitsch features Ken Rosenthal and Tom Verducci, who are serving as dugout reporters for Fox Sports for the Dodgers-Yankees World Series. Both Verducci and Rosenthal have long careers as accomplished writers; Verducci works for Sports Illustrated while Rosenthal writes for The Athletic. (I have worked with both.) In this podcast Rosenthal and Verducci discuss why this World Series feels so big; how they prepare for their Fox TV work versus writing; the potential viewership of this World Series; why we sometimes see on social media sometimes some fans not happy with in-game MLB interviews; how they approach the post-game interview; the Series impact on Shohei Ohtani, Aaron Judge and Juan Soto when it comes to legacy and more.
