A bicoastal World Series between two giants in Major League Baseball has been an advantageous scenario for FOX Sports. Wednesday night's Game 5 at Yankee Stadium may send this series back to Dodgers Stadium, but the first four games have included numerous storylines. From live musical performances and honoring Dodgers legend Fernando Valenzuela to Freddie Freeman's walk-off grand slam in Game 1 in Los Angeles and Anthony Volpe's go-ahead grand slam in Game 4 in the Bronx, the national broadcaster is leaning on their technological planning and operations team to bring these moments to the viewing audience.
Prior to Tuesday night’s Game 4 of the 2024 World Series, FOX Sports' SVP, Technical and Field Operations, Mike Davies, detailed how their crew feels comfortable working from two venues with very different setups, how workflows and technologies have allowed their production team to shine throughout this series, and how they've pivoted to cover on-field activations without much preparation.
