2010 FSO TV Schedule out... (Edit: All 145 games in HD)

[Redsfan320]

CINCINNATI, OHIO – FOX Sports Ohio today announced its 145-game Cincinnati Reds television schedule for 2010. The Reds regular season begins with their home opener on Monday, April 5 at 1pm against division rival St. Louis Cardinals at Great American Ball Park.

"We're excited for a new season of Reds baseball," said Henry Ford, Senior Vice President and General Manager, FOX Sports Ohio. "With the addition of some talented new players during the off-season, both on the field and in the broadcast booth, Reds fans have plenty of reasons to look forward to the upcoming season. FOX Sports Ohio is proud to provide fans unparalleled, state-of-the-art coverage of the Reds all year long."

The network will kick off its coverage of the home opener with Reds Live pre-game show, presented by Ray St. Clair Roofing at 12:30pm. Jim Day, Jeff Piecoro and Brian Giesenschlag will take the field to feature all the Opening Day festivities.

As previously announced, Thom Brennaman will serve as the play by play voice for the majority of Reds game telecasts this season. Cincinnati native and longtime broadcaster Paul Keels will be the play-by-play announcer for the remainder of the Reds schedule. Both broadcasters will team with color analysts Chris Welsh and Jeff Brantley. George Grande will also return to his play-by-play announcing role in September on a limited basis.

FOX Sports Ohio will continue its comprehensive pregame coverage of the Reds all season long with the return of Reds Live, presented by Ray St. Clair Roofing, featuring co-hosts Day and Piecoro and feature reporter Giesenschlag. Reds Live will once again provide fans with commentary, features, and in-depth pregame coverage of the Reds 30 minutes prior to every game telecast. Immediately following the final out of each game, the post-game edition of Reds Live will feature highlights, player interviews and analysis.

Behind-the-scenes on all of FOX Sports Ohio’s Reds productions are producer Christian Roberts; directors Brian Hunterman and Roy Alfers; and Reds Live producer Kent Weaver.

The following schedule does not include high definition (HD) telecasts. The release of the complete Reds schedule including HD is forthcoming.

Let's hope he is calling some Reds' games in October this year.

[1990REDS]

Really happy that thom is getting the majority of the games. Always thought he was really good.

[SeeinRed]

I'm curious to see the HD schedule when it comes out. I don't know the economics involved in producing HD games, but one would think we are close to the time where there is no excuse for most of the games not being in HD.

We're not close to the time, we are at the damn time. HD has been around long enough and now has enough market penetration that there is no excuse to not broadcast ALL games shown in HD.

Sorry, I get cranky when it's not in HD.

[Redsfan320]

there is no excuse to not broadcast ALL games shown in HD.

Agreed. It's very hard for me to watch non-HD sports (on anything for that matter), and I hope very soon all Reds games will be in HD.

[Jr's Boy]

I think it's great George will still be in the Reds booth for some games later in the year.To echo Texasdave, I hope he's calling em in October too.

[SidneySlicker]

Per John Fay
I heard today that Fox Sports Ohio might air all 145 games on its schedule in High-Definition. We’ll know shortly. The release of the schedule yesterday said the HD schedule will be released soon.

This would be awesome! Just stepped up and got a 46" hd tv a couple of months ago. Can't wait to watch the Reds on it.

[mattfeet]

I sure hope this is true. That'd be epic.

[gilpdawg]

They'd better. There's no excuse not to. Some other teams went 100% HD 2 years ago, and even more last year.

[Red in Atl]

Does anyone know how to get Comcast games in HD if you don't live within the Fox Ohio broadcast range.

For the last 2 years I've paid Comcast to get all the games, of which they promise that a percentage would be in HD. Then when you go to watch the games, none of them, even if labeled HD, are in HD.

I had/have a serious problem with this and called Comcast to complain. I made it all the way to the Presidents AA, who I fought with for about 10 minutes until she finally "admitted" that the decision is not up to Comcast, but to the source providers of the feed.

To which I said, "Then that's false advertsing, because I have never gotten a game in HD from you." We then agreed to disagree.

So has anyone had similar experiences, and does anyone know how to get HD games in Atlanta?

I plan on making a HD TV purchase soon to watch the Reds games. I guess, I assummed all the games are in HD.

What was the percentage of games on HD last year?

[The Voice of IH]

IHTN (The Indian Hill Television Network which is a High School Television Station) broadcast all of there sporting events in HD, It is damn time that FSN does the Same!!!!

[gilpdawg]

I plan on making a HD TV purchase soon to watch the Reds games. I guess, I assummed all the games are in HD.

What was the percentage of games on HD last year?

About half. Hope they go all HD this year.
