World Baseball Network has acquired more depth for its roster with the addition of sports media veteran Chris R. Vaccaro. Vaccaro, an Emmy Award and Murrow Award-winning media executive from Long Island joins the organization as a senior editorial advisor. He will help the staff with editorial strategy, production operations, and standards.

“I’m bullish on international baseball and am excited to help grow the World Baseball Network brand,” said Vaccaro. “There is a foundation here from platforms and content and a growing audience of readers worldwide who are starting to make World Baseball Network part of their consumption habits. It’s the right time to be involved with international baseball media.”
