JEANNE ZELASKO
'Jeanne Zelasko' (born October 26, 1966 in Cincinnati, Ohio) is a sports commentator for the FOX network. Primarily she covers Major League Baseball and from 2001-2006 NASCAR events. She became the pre-game host of FOX's MLB games in 2001 after the departure of Keith Olbermann. Zelasko covers pre-game for ''MLB 2K6'' and ''MLB 2K7'' alongside Steve Physioc.
Her husband, Curt Sandoval, is a sports anchor and reporter for ABC-owned KABC-TV in Los Angeles and triathlete - having completed the Ironman in Hawaii.
Jeanne attended San Pasqual High School in Escondido, California from 1980 - 1984 where she was captain of the cheerleading squad and demonstrated that she could sing.
Prior to breaking into television, Zelasko was a radio personality known as "Jeanne Z."
While covering the 2005 Major League Baseball All-Star Game in Detroit's Comerica Park, Zelasko angered many fans for her treatment of legendary broadcaster Ernie Harwell. Many didn't like the way Zelasko abruptly--and in many fans' eyes, awkwardly--cut Harwell off just 17 seconds into a pre-game interview, as Harwell was detailing the accomplishments of famous Tiger Al Kaline.[1]
