Bally Sports Brings Back ‘Players Only’ Booth for Atlanta Braves Game Against Chicago Cubs

The Atlanta Braves have captured the attention of their fans through unique broadcast experiences offered by Bally Sports. Last season, they introduced the “Legends Booth,” which featured former players Tom Glavine, John Smoltz, Chipper Jones, and Jeff Francoeur calling a thrilling victory over the New York Mets. This season, they are bringing back a special “players only” booth for the game against the Chicago Cubs next Wednesday.

This special broadcast will feature Jeff Francoeur leading the play-by-play once again, along with Tom Glavine, Chipper Jones, and retired catcher Brian McCann. While McCann does not have formal broadcasting experience, he has made special guest appearances in the booth before. The dynamic of having four analysts without a play-by-play man created a unique and exciting atmosphere during previous broadcasts.

Fans eagerly anticipate the upcoming game against the Chicago Cubs, set for 7:20 PM ET. With memorable moments sure to follow, Bally Sports continues to cater to the love and passion of Atlanta Braves fans.

The first iteration of the alternate broadcast last season was memorable for fans. The game featured an intense matchup where the Braves ultimately walked off against the Mets in extra innings with 23 total runs, nine home runs, four lead changes and twelve pitchers taking the ball. It was an unforgettable game that solidified the appeal of the “Legends Booth.”
