This Week in Baseball Returns on MLB X

On April 1st, Major League Baseball and X are bringing back the classic This Week in Baseball

Show, dropping short episodes every Friday at noon.

Eastern Time right on the MLB X account through the postseason, it's packed with the

week's top plays, wild moments, and cool stories, all in a quick fun format that nods to

the original Vive fans loved.

These new episodes come from MLB Studios and MLB Network, both Emmy winners, and they're

hosted by Kate Manescalco.

Switch player spotlights, throwback clips, funny boopers, and that fan favorite TWIB notes

segment, plus the iconic theme music to hit all the nostalgia feels.

Back in April 1977, this week in Baseball kicked off as a 30 minute highlight reel hosted

by Hall of Fame voice Mel Allen, when Baseball clips were mostly stuck on local news.

It ran strong until 1998, with a comeback from 2000 to 2011, becoming one of the sports

biggest stables.

Fans old and new are buzzing about this bridge between Baseball's golden era and today's

fast social feeds.

X's content head called it a perfect mashup of heritage in real time hype, letting vets

relive memories while rookies dive into the action.

First episode drops this Friday at noon on MLB's X page, so hit follow on at MLB and at

X originals to stay locked in on the highlights rolling your way.

That's the story for today, MLB News Today, driven by AI, I'm Corey with the story.
