SAN FRANCISCO – ESPN won’t be allowed to broadcast its “Baseball Tonight” show live from the All-Star Game in San Francisco tonight.

Major League Baseball limited ESPN’s access this week after the cable network broke an embargo and announced the All-Star rosters before the end of a selection show on TBS.

Fox is broadcasting the game, but ESPN traditionally has moved its “Baseball Tonight” crew from the studio in Bristol, Conn., to the site of the game. Karl Ravech, Steve Phillips and John Kruk instead will do the show this year from the studio.

ESPN does have reporters on site who will file reports but will be treated like all other non-rightsholders.

“ESPN viewers will receive the same in-depth All-Star coverage they have come to expect,” said in a network statement.

“We have a long and productive relationship with MLB that we value.”

Baseball spokesman Pat Courtney declined yesterday to comment on the situation.
