On June 28 in Oakland, Domingo Germán of the New York Yankees threw the 24th perfect game in Major League Baseball history. How did the Yankees regional broadcast partner, the YES Network, rise to the occasion of producing this historic game?
In this episode of SVG Rewind, take a look back at YES Network's production of the fourth perfecto thrown by a Yankee with Director Dan Barr and Producer Josh Isaac - who was sitting in the producer's chair for just the second Yankees game of his career!
Speaking with SVG's Director of Digital Brandon Costa, Barr and Isaac share the details behind producing a game of this magnitude while on the road; explain how a producer and director help each other out as a historic moment is brewing during a live sports broadcast; debate when the production crew begins to inject the possibility of a perfect game into the broadcast, and much more.
