NBC’s Don Ohlmeyer apologized to acting commissioner Bud Selig for saying he hoped the World Series would be a four-game sweep in order to help his network’s prime-time entertainment schedule.

In what seemed like staged pronouncements, NBC Sports president Dick Ebersol told reporters about the apology on Sunday night before Game 2. Selig then came on the field to say the matter was settled.

Ohlmeyer, president of NBC West Coast, said baseball interrupted the network’s Thursday night schedule.
