According to Bob Raissman of the NY Daily News, this will be the first of a few select TV appearances that Terry has signed on to make with Fox Sports this season:

We all remember the last time Terry made headlines. He was giving umpire Tom Hallion a piece of his mind in the now infamous video of Noah Syndergaard getting ejected for throwing behind Chase Utley.

Fox should only hope to get this version of our former skipper:

 

Terry has always been must-see TV, so Fox did well here. In addition to the aforementioned video, he was always brutally honest with the media, he routinely got fired up in post-game press conferences, and he knew how to celebrate with the fans:

 

It’s great to see Terry stay involved with the sport and I wish him luck on his new TV gig.
