Pavlovic to Cover the San Francisco Giants for CSNBayArea.com and Contribute On-Air to SportsNet Central, Yahoo SportsTalk Live and Giants Pregame Live, Giants Postgame Live and other MLB Programming 

SAN FRANCISCO, CA (February 6, 2015) – Comcast SportsNet Bay Area (@CSNAuthentic), part of the NBC Sports Group and the online and on-air home of “Authentic Bay Area Sports,” today announced that Alex Pavlovic (@AlexPavlovic) has joined the network as its Giants Insider.  In his new role, Pavlovic will provide coverage of the San Francisco Giants across the network’s growing list of multiplatform outlets, including CSNBayArea.com’s “GiantsTalk” section and on-air for SportsNet Central, Yahoo SportsTalk Live, Giants Pregame Live, Giants Postgame Live and other MLB related programming.  The announcement was made by Geoff James, Director of Digital Media & Managing Editor for CSNBayArea.com and CSNCalifornia.com.

Said James: "Alex is one of MLB’s most respected and accomplished beat writers, and he brings a broad, deeply rooted knowledge of the Giants and the Major Leagues to Comcast SportsNet.  We are thrilled with the addition of his remarkable talents and insights to the network and to have him as part of our talented CSN Insider team.”

Added Pavlovic: “I couldn’t be more excited about joining a deep and talented team at Comcast SportsNet. I have always admired the network’s coverage of the Giants and other local teams, and I’m looking forward to adding my own contributions across multiple platforms during the 2015 season and for years to come.”

Pavlovic, a lifelong Bay Area resident, is starting his fourth year on the Giants beat. He comes to Comcast SportsNet from the San Jose Mercury News/Bay Area News Group, where he covered preps for two years before being promoted to the Giants beat prior to the 2012 season. In his first three years on the beat, Pavlovic covered two title runs, a perfect game and three no-hitters. Prior to joining the Bay Area News Group, Pavlovic spent a year at the Santa Barbara News-Press. He attended Cupertino High School and is a 2008 graduate of UC Santa Barbara.
