The New England Sports Network has announced that it will launch new nightly sports series, ‘NESN Daily’ on Friday, Aug. 6 at 11 p.m.
NESN Daily will be a news debate program broadcast live seven nights a week at 11 PM featuring co-hosts Jade McCarthy and Uri Berenguer. The Sports series will be re-aired from 5 a.m. to 9 a.m. and noon to 1 p.m. the following day.
McCarthy native of Newton, Mass., joined NESN in January after four years as a sports anchor and reporter at WCAU, the NBC affiliate in Philadelphia. For the past six months, Jade has anchored SportsDesk and reported extensively on the Red Sox, Bruins, Celtics and Patriots.
Berenguer comes to NESN from the Spanish Beisbol Network (SBN), where he has served as the radio play-by-play voice for Boston Red Sox broadcasts for the past 10 years. In 2003, at the age of 20, Berenguer was named the lead play-by-play announcer for SBN’s Red Sox Spanish radio broadcasts, making him one of the youngest play-by-play announcers in the history of the league.
Joel Feld, NESN’s executive vice president of programming and executive producer said “With our talent team now in place, NESN Daily promises to be the go-to program for fans of New England sports. Jade and Uri’s candid, dynamic and smart approach to reporting will appeal to those who are as passionate about the stories and events of the day as they are.”
Bill Kulik, president and founder of the Spanish Beisbol Network said “Since his first day on the job, Uri has brought an energetic, smart and fun style to our broadcast. This new opportunity is a perfect fit for him, and we know he’ll be as great for NESN as he was for SBN.”
