Breaking News From NESN: Garrett May Consider Running for President of Larry Lucchino's Nation ... Hazel Mae Will Have All the Developments on Whatever-Happened-to-Sports Desk

Lucchino Talks About TV Reality

“Yeah, I noticed that,” Red Sox president and CEO Larry Lucchino said on WEEI”s Dennis and Callahan show this morning when he was asked about NESN going right to Sox Appeal after last night’s game in lieu of the Extra Innings postgame show. “I understood what happened last night, I wanted to prolong the joy of that victory and see the replay and hear the analysis, when you have a game like that with the theatrical comeback and all of that, you say ‘let’s savor it.’ But I do understand that with a new show, Sox Appeal was making its debut last night, and they were eager to get the highest number of people to watch it last night. I don’t think you’re going to see that as a pattern, where a show of some sort comes on immediately afterwards, displacing the postgame show.

“We have stuffed a lot of baseball into the NESN daily or weekly schedule, and I think you’ll see plenty of that. But there’s also an effort to diversify, to come up with some interesting programming, that’s both artistically and commercially successful. But you’re right. We’ve got to keep our eyes on the prize here, and recognize that Red Sox baseball is what drives the NESN subscribers, and I think you’ll see they’ll always be recognition of that fact. Just cut us a little slack that this was the debut of a highly anticipated [show].”
