Behind the Scene Scandals That Took Place At ESPN

ESPN Picks Favorites

ESPN has often been said to favor certain sports teams and players over others. The program Baseball Tonight has often been said to favor the Boston Red Sox and the New York teams. Pitcher Heath Bell, famously criticized the network saying, “I truly believe ESPN only cares about promoting the Red Sox and Yankees—and nobody else. That’s why I like the MLB Network, because they promote everybody. I’m really turned off by ESPN and Baseball Tonight. When Jake Peavy threw 8⅓ innings on Saturday, they showed one pitch in the third inning and that was it. It’s all about the Red Sox and Yankees.”
