Skyview Networks will remotely produce the Tampa Bay Rays in-game broadcast from their Technical Operations Center in Scottsdale, AZ due to Florida office closures as Hurricane Ian approaches. With the storm scheduled to make landfall on September 28, the Skyview Networks operations and engineering teams will manage the play-by-play broadcasts for the Rays' upcoming series at the Cleveland Guardians.

For over ten years, the Tampa Bay Rays have utilized Skyview Networks' AdView software for play-by-play inventory management, allowing them the flexibility to shift the studio location of their broadcast quickly. Using Skyview's studio and technical facility, the Rays broadcasts will be seamlessly produced in Scottsdale and distributed to Rays affiliates across Florida.

"Skyview Networks is a proud, longtime partner of the Tampa Bay Rays and we are glad to step in for their production team so they can focus on Hurricane Ian," said Skyview Networks SVP Business Development and Communication Andrew Kalb. "Our operations team is diligently working to ensure that the Rays play-by-play remains uninterrupted this week and we are proud to have the technical support and software that allows us to step in wherever necessary."
