Even though the bulk of MLB Division Series games can be found on TBS & ESPN Radio respectively, MLB Network will get in the game themselves with 2 postseason games, this coming Sunday, as well as Wednesday.

The 4-year old MLB Network airs its very first playoff game Sunday @ 11A (CT) with live coverage of Game 2 of the American League Division Series matchup between the Oakland A's & Detroit Tigers from Comerica Park. Matt Vasgersian, one of the signature voices of MLBN, will call Sunday's Game 2 with analyst Jim Kaat & on-field reporter Sam Ryan. It'll mark Kaat's first postseason game in 17 years.

Although the other game hasn't been announced as of yet, longtime baseball enthusiast Bob Costas will join Kaat & Ryan for MLBN's second MLB Division Series broadcast Wednesday, October 10th. For Costas, also with NBC Sports, Wednesday's Division Series game will mark his first playoff call since the 2000 American League Championship Series.

"MLB Tonight", the channel's nightly studio show from Secaucus, NJ, will air before & after all playoff games. That will include live coverage of press conferences, previews, highlights, analysis & interviews. In addition to MLBN's All-Star roster of hosts, studio analysts & reporters on-site at all the ballparks, a pair of grizzled postseason veterans will join the guys in the MLBN studio throughout the Division Series. Veteran SS Jimmy Rollins, who was on the Philadelphia Phillies' 2008 World Series title team, and the retiring Omar Vizquel, most recently with the Toronto Blue Jays & a 2-time AL Champion with the Cleveland Indians, will serve as guest studio analysts on "MLB Tonight" throughout the Division Series round starting this weekend.
