Christopher Russo

The “Mad Dog” announced Friday that his show “High Heat” on MLB Network will end on the network, with Friday’s episode being the last show.

The NY Post reports Russo had hosted the show on the network since 2014. Alanna Rizzo has been a co-host since 2021.

“In more than 2,200 episodes over the last 11 seasons, High Heat created a signature edgy and entertaining look at the game,” MLB Network said in a statement. “It’s been a great ride, and we thank Chris and Alanna for everything they’ve given to the show. As Chris likes to say, ‘That’s a good job by you.’”

Russo will still regularly appear on other MLB Network shows, according to The Athletic.

The sports media legend also works for ESPN, co-hosting “First Take” every Wednesday, and has his own radio show on Sirius XM.
