Sean McAdam is a sports writer for FoxSports.com and The Boston Herald and a former writer for the The Providence Journal and ESPN.com. He is a beat writer for the Boston Red Sox, as well as a radio and television analyst and commentator in the Boston area.
Following his graduation from Providence College in 1981, McAdam spent four years covering sports at WEAN, a Rhode Island radio talk station[1] before joining the Journal as a reporter. After 23 years with the Journal, with most of that tenure covering the Red Sox beat, he left to take a similar position with the Herald in October 2008[2]. Sean resigned from ESPN.com to join FoxSports.com in May 2009[3].
McAdam makes regular appearances on WEEI sports talk radio in Boston. He is a co-host on the Big Show (weekdays 2-6) and he co-hosts "The Baseball Show" with ex-major leaguer Lou Merloni and colleagues Michael Felger, Steve Buckley and Rob Bradford (Sundays 9-12)[4]. Sean is often ribbed by other hosts on the Big Show for his liberal leaning politics. His monotone voice is also jokingly mocked in bits on the show.
Since 2004, Sean has also been a guest analyst during Red Sox pregame and discussion shows on NESN, the team's satellite channel. On April 10, 2009, he filled for the ill Jerry Remy as a color commentator, working in the NESN booth alongside Don Orsillo for the first two innings of Boston's 6-3 loss to the Los Angeles Angels in Anaheim, California[5].
McAdam resides in Tyngsborough, Massachusetts[6].
Career
McAdam is a member of the Baseball Writers Association of America and is eligible to vote in Baseball Hall of Fame balloting.
