ESPN approaches KBO about airing S. Korean baseball games in U.S.: sources

By Yoo Jee-ho

SEOUL, April 14 (Yonhap) -- The U.S. sports broadcasting giant ESPN has
approached the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) about possibly airing South
Korean baseball games to the American audience, informed sources told Yonhap
News Agency on Tuesday.

The sources added that ESPN, for the time being, is showing only some passing
interest, and nothing concrete has been determined as far as the format or
the extent of the broadcast, if it comes to that.

With all professional and amateur sports on hold indefinitely due to the
coronavirus pandemic, ESPN has been struggling to fill dead air. ESPN holds
rights to Major League Baseball (MLB) games, with Sunday Night Baseball, the
exclusive evening game on Sundays during the regular season, being its
signature baseball showcase.

Just like MLB, the KBO has also delayed the start of its season. But at least
its teams have been practicing and playing intrasquad scrimmages, which are
being streamed on YouTube and Korean portal sites and have drawn interest
from baseball-hungry fans and from baseball journalists in search of fresh
material in the U.S.

With the number of COVID-19 cases steadily falling and staying below 50 for
the sixth consecutive day on Tuesday, the KBO is hopeful that it could begin
the regular season in early May and salvage a full, 144-game season.

"ESPN first asked MLB to put them in touch with the KBO," one source said.
"Then they contacted the KBO about how to go about showing Korean games in
the U.S. But as far as I know, there haven't been any specific talks about
how they're going to air games."

Another source said ESPN, following its conversation with the KBO, recently
reached out to a local agency that owns KBO's overseas broadcasting rights.
But that discussion, too, hasn't really gone anywhere so far.

Despite South Korea's international success in baseball, including the 2008
Olympic gold medal and the runner-up finish at the 2009 World Baseball
Classic, the KBO has been largely viewed as a novelty or curiosity among the
U.S. audience and has been best known for viral highlight packages showing
bloopers and demonstrative bat flips -- some of them on deep flyouts or fouls
just wide of the poles.
