Sports commentator gives a running commentary of
a game or event in real time, usually during a
live broadcast, traditionally delivered in the
historical present tense. The comments are
normally a voiceover, with the sounds of the
action and spectators also heard in the
background. In the case of television commentary,
the commentators are on screen rarely if at all
during the event.

during the action. Also referred to as
announcers, these sports commentators provide
up-to-the-minute information accurately and
articulately.
