DIRECTV is kicking up a line-up of MLB Network Showcase games, televised live in 4K/Ultra HD.
Friday’s game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants, called by MLB Network’s Bob Costas, Harold Reynolds, Tom Verducci and Sam Ryan, will mark the first-ever live 4K UHD telecast of a MLB game in the United States.
“The 4K UHD experience on DIRECTV will bring America’s pastime to life like never before in the convenience of the living room,” said Dan York, chief content officer, AT&T Entertainment Group. “As a leader in sports programming, we’re continuing to deliver more live events in 4K Ultra HD and finding new ways to entertain our customers.”
Throughout the regular season, DIRECTV’s subscribers with the ULTIMATE Package or higher and compatible 4K Ultra HD equipment can watch up to 25 MLB match-ups in UHD.
“We’re proud of the high standard of quality we’ve established with every aspect of our MLB Network Showcase game telecasts since MLB Network’s launch in 2009,” said MLB Network president Rob McGlarry. “Thanks to this new collaboration with AT&T, we’re excited to continue to raise the bar of our game productions for baseball fans all season long.”
