America’s Pregame is a new hour-long program on Fox Sports 1. The announcement of the show’s addition to the schedule was made today by Scott Ackerson, Fox Sports 1’s Executive Vice President, News. America’s Pregame airs Monday to Friday from 5:00-6:00 PM CST and premieres on Monday, April 7.
Said Ackerson: “We’ll discuss in detail the night’s most compelling games, whether it’s a traditional rivalry or a battle for first place, using our roster of broadcasters and reporters throughout the country for live interviews, regardless of which network is carrying it. Fans just want to know what’s hot that night and where to watch it. Fans have questions; America’s Pregame has answers.”
It will be hosted by sportscaster and Air Force veteran Mike Hill (@itsmikehill). He joined FOX Sports in August, just prior to the launch of Fox Sports 1, and has taken on multiple roles before taking on this assignment.
