FOX Sports is broadcasting the MLB All-Star Game for the 25th time in network history and revealed a robust commentary lineup across its platforms.

Tom Brady will make his regular season debut with Burkhardt when FOX Sports airs the Dallas Cowboys-Cleveland Browns game on September 8 at 4:25 p.m. ET.

FOX Sports cut a deal last year with the NBA which allows them to air the showcase games.

The top local markets for the game were Kansas City, Atlanta, Las Vegas, San Diego and Dallas.

“Julio Rodríguez’s journey to the Major Leagues resembles that of a fairytale and FOX Sports is thrilled to partner with Religion of Sports to spotlight the compelling story behind his meteoric rise to become one of the hottest young stars in the league."

"The arrangement will provide enhanced revenue and long-term stability for the conference, create benefits for our student-athletes, and allow us to remain nationally competitive in our marquee sport: basketball."

This makes the game the most watched non-World Cup soccer telecast ever on FOX.

The telecast of the game peaked with 2.559 million viewers in the quarter-hour spanning from 8:45 to 9 p.m. EST.

"You never really know how sports are going to go, which is why we all tune in."

This year's championship game, which was called by Curt Menefee and Joel Klatt and also featured a visit from Tom Brady in the booth, peaked at 1,723,000 viewers from 6:15 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. ET.
