Meet some of the Comcast crew:

Arlen Showstack is the talented Producer and Director of the Yawkey League Baseball games. His roles often include all pre and post production work which involves crewing, delegating positions, directing the games and editing them for each telecast. Arlen runs local Origination for Boston. Being a long time youth baseball coach in the town of Brookline for the past 33 years, Arlen can relate to giving the talented players of the Yawkey League a platform to showcase their talents.

Stu Sklaver, commonly known as Cousin Stu on the telecasts, works diligently on the stats. He assists the graphics operator in importing and updating all statistical information prior to and during games. Each year he looks to bring on a new feature and it will be interesting to see what he has in store this year. Since childhood, Stu's passion was Baseball. Whether it was announcing games during Red Sox telecasts, or keeping track of an array of stats in a scorebook, one thing will always remain - his love of the game.

Frank Morello runs the 1st base camera, normally atop a scaffold situated near the 1st base bag. He provides outstanding coverage for both live and replay footage. Frank is also the Master Control operator for Boston Local Origination for Comcast. Whether he's high above the field on a scaffold, or capturing videotaped games in a control room server for airing, Frank is a very valuable part of the Comcast team.

Andy Anderson, a long time Comcast employee, often runs the 3rd base camera for games, providing exceptional coverage. Andy is truly a jack of all trades, and at times fills in as video engineer as well. Although Andy resides the furthest away from most Yawkey Leagues baseball venues, he makes each and every trip without fail and is a tremendous asset to each production.

Allan Segal has been the voice of Yawkey League Baseball for several years now. Announcing has always been his forte, whether it's high school sports or on the collegiate level, Allan is a true professional. His vast knowledge of the game, coupled with a witty sense of humor, always makes for exciting telecasts.

Dave McKay has become a strong part of the Comcast coverage over the years as both a color commentator and on occasion running play by play. As a color analyst, Dave provides incite into the league very few individuals have knowledge of. He is also the host of the Boston Baseball Heads Show that can also be viewed on Comcast Channel 12 of Boston and Brookline.

Al Ditullio, the exceptional sideline reporter, brings a real home town feeling to the games. Each game Al is called upon several times for special game updates and interviews. His insightful comments are always a great addition to the telecasts. When not assisting on games, Al is the Watertown High School Sports announcer for Watertown Community Cable Access.

Michelle Derochers works an array of crew positions during the coverage, ranging from camera operator to graphics to audio. Michelle is the Access Coordinator for the town of Halifax and always brings a positive attitude to the games and it very instrumental to the Comcast team.

Evelyn Burke runs various positions for games as well including graphics, tape operator, audio operator and camera. Evelyn was extremely valuable this year with her assistance in the creation of the new YBL graphics for the telecasts. She's truly a delight to have on the crew. Evelyn splits her work schedule between the Access Studio in Orleans, MA and the Cambridge studio.

John Leahy, the former voice of the Yawkey League, still makes himself available whenever possible in between his heavy duties as the play-by-play voice of the Kalamazoo Kings professional baseball club based in Kalamazoo, Michigan. His professionalism is always paramount and his extensive knowledge of the game is second to none.

Eric Shulman has assisted as both a Color Commentator and our audio board operator. Eric is well versed at stats as well, and is always eager to get involved in all aspects of the production. When Eric is not assisting on a YBL game, it’s normally because he’s either running live stats for the Boston Red Sox, Boston Celtics or New England Patriots. He also runs stats for Boston College for all sports, male and female.

Justin Shannahan runs the Abbington Access Studio when he’s not assisting in coverage of a YBL game. He normally shares camera duties across the field, and more recently as the hand held camera operator getting eye-catching shots. He is capable of running just about any crew position if needed.

Radcliffe Angus is the supervising field engineer. He's been involved with the coverage for well over a decade and has been extremely vital for all productions, including the YBL coverage. As the video engineer, his skills range from camera phasing and balancing to troubleshooting various technical issues. During game coverage, Rad can be found adjusting the camera control units within the production truck to assure the picture quality of the cameras are optimized.

Mike Robinson is one of our senior engineers and great additions to the Yawkey Baseball coverage. Being a baseball player himself in a men's league, he can fully appreciate the talent of the Yawkey League. Mike will be one of the main engineers for this year’s coverage and has many years of experience in the field.

Kevin Howlett is another key engineer for the Yawkey Baseball coverage. He’s stationed out of the Brookline/Comcast facility and makes himself as available as possible for as many games as he can. He works on both in-studio and on-location productions.

Pat Clifford is one of the talented tape operators, running replays and roll-ins. When not covering a game, Pat runs the studio in Amesbury. He’s normally the first individual to offer his assistance when YBL crewmembers are needed.
