ESPN2 to nationally broadcast Monday night’s showdown vs. Los Angeles

PHOENIX – Football fans and players know that there’s something special about taking the field on a Monday night in front of a national audience. That’ll be the scene this Monday night June 11 in Phoenix as the Arizona Rattlers host the Los Angeles Avengers at 7 p.m. from the U.S. Airways Center.

For those who can’t handle the intensity of the ‘Snake Pit’ – or simply live out of state – the game will be broadcast across the country on ESPN2 as part of the network’s Russell Athletic AFL on ESPN weekly coverage.

Mark Jones and Merril Hoge will provide play-by-play and color analysis of the game, which features a hungry Rattlers team out to spoil the Avengers’ playoff hopes and “avenge” a Week 6 loss at the STAPLES Center.

The game can also be seen on ESPN360.com and heard on SIRIUS Satellite Radio (Ch. 119) and locally on ESPN Radio 620-AM KMVP.
