Garciaparra to call Wednesday games for ESPN

[January 29, 2011]  BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) -- Nomar Garciaparra will become the analyst for ESPN's Wednesday night baseball telecasts this season. Dave O'Brien will join him as the play-by-play voice.

Aaron Boone and Rick Sutcliffe will be the analysts for the network's Monday night broadcasts. Sean McDonough will do the play-by-play.

Dan Shulman was on the Monday telecasts last season. He shifts to Sunday and will be paired with Orel Hershiser and Bobby Valentine. Chris Singleton had been paired with Shulman. He moves to ESPN Radio and will call Sunday night games with play-by-play man Jon Sciambi.

Garciaparra is a former Boston Red Sox star who worked selected Wednesday games last year with O'Brien and Sutcliffe.
