As a nation turns its TVs on to the playoffs next week, I can’t help but wonder if, like the fans of whoever signs Shane Victorino this offseason, they really wish he was Michael Bourn:

...for the next week, the fast-talking [Shane] Victorino will serve as a guest analyst for TBS’ coverage of baseball’s League Championship series. He starts Monday, in what for now is a three-day deal.

Victorino will be in the studio with commentators Dennis Eckersley and David Wells, and host Matt Winer. He’ll also join the group for the pregame broadcast.


Question: is Victorino contractually-obligated, like all other broadcasters, to note that he himself is from Hawaii?
