Perfect games in Major League Baseball come few and far between, but last week on June 28 vs. the Oakland A's, New York Yankees' starting pitcher Domingo Germán twirled the 24th perfecto in league history and the first in over a decade. Germán entered the baseball record book, but the broadcast featured Producer Josh Isaac at the front bench in only the second game of his career.
At the 2023 SVG Regional Sports Production Summit, YES Network's VP, Broadcast Operations and Engineering, Mike Webb, comments on the historic moment, provides major production highlights from the New York Yankees and Brooklyn Nets seasons, how the network is standing out in a unique way through the launch of the YES App, and why reuniting with regional-sports-network colleague at this event is important.
