Nah. He’s hosted Baseball Tonight in the past, but ESPN is cancelling the show. That news got leaked to the media before ESPN was ready, and they fired him over the leak.

I liked Baseball Tonight. Hate to see it go. Kind of crazy there isn’t enough interest to justify a daily baseball show from May - August.

Adnan is great at his job. If he wants to stay in sports, he'll be able to pick his next landing spot. He's such a film buff, I think he might want to pursue a role as a movie critic.

I think a lot of the hardcore baseball guys are watching the highlight show on the MLB Network.

MLB Network is vastly better but the writing was on the wall for Baseball Tonight for a couple of years now with the way they handled that show.

Somebody can probably make me out to be racist from this, but I used to get Adnan Virk, Dari Nowkhah and Anish Shroff completely mixed up.

They're all good to me and I've pretty much got them separated now that Dari seems to be exclusively SEC.

That's not at all uncommon. I follow Adnan on Twitter and he regularly has folks tweeting him when they mean Dari and vice versa. They have a sense of humor about it. It's also a Twitter joke to compare Adnan to Chris Chelios.
I've always thought Dari was a pro's pro.

Without a doubt. Once MLB network got Harold Reynolds, that was all she wrote.
