Liberty Media has named Chase Carey as the new chairman of F1 following its takeover this week, confirming he will work alongside sport CEO Bernie Ecclestone. ESPN looks into the background of the man who could have a vital say in the future of the sport.A Harvard Business School graduate, Carey started working for Fox in 1988, acquiring various roles including CEO and Chairman of Fox Television Group. During his first stint at the company he pushed hard for Fox to be sports-orientated in the early 1990s, negotiating a $1.6 billion deal for NFL rights in 1993. The deal was instrumental in establishing Fox as a major player in sports broadcasting, according to the Wall Street Journal.After rising to prominence at FOX, he became CEO of DIRECTV in 2003 following News Corporations purchase of a controlling stake. He continued in the role when Liberty Media took control of DIRECTV in 2006.In 2009 became President and COO of News Corp and 21st Century Fox, making him media mogul Rupert Murdochs right-hand man. According to the Financial Times, Murdoch called Carey my partner and trusted advisor. Carey?was tipped to be Murdochs replacement as CEO.During this time he showed his toughness in business, allowing two World Series games in 2010 to go to blackout?in New York during midnight negotiations with cable companies. Despite risking the wrath of Fox viewers Carey got what he desired from the negotiations on both occasions.Murdoch eventually handed the CEO role to son James, meaning Carey stepped down to aid with the transition. Carey became advisor and executive vice-chairman to 21st Century Fox in July 2015.His elegant, twirled moustache is not just for show, either -- Carey survived a car accident when he was a university student, one which threw him through the windshield. The moustache is, according to the Financial Times, to conceal a scar from the accident. Discount Football Jerseys Throwback .ca. Hey Kerry, big fan of yours, just finished reading your book.

The Red Sox finished it off with a 16-2 victory over Zack Greinke on Sunday, as Mookie Betts had three homers -- one off Greinke in each of the first two innings -- and Dustin Pedroia had five hits.It was one of those days, Hale told reporters. Weve all been there. Weve all been on the good side. Weve all been on the bad side. Its a tough day. Its a tough day for the pitching staff. Its one of those days you deal with. Thats our ace, our No. 1 guy. They got him. We win as a team, we lose as a team. Today was a tough one.The Mets and Diamondbacks will begin a three-game series Monday at Arizona, a quick turnaround after the Tuesday-Thursday series in Citi Field last week.Collins challenged the Mets effort after they were outscored 17-5 in the series.

He did not walk a batter, a career first in games he had pitched into the seventh.Colon gave up only one run, that coming after Jean Segura stole second base in the third inning, took third on a throwing error by the catcher and scored on Paul Goldschmidts single.Colon is attempting to become the 18th pitcher in major league history and the third this season to beat all 30 teams. The D-backs are the only team he has not beaten in a career that began in 1997. Cubs right-hander John Lackey and Nationals right-handed Max Scherzer did it this season. Colon is 0-1 with a 3.20 ERA in three career starts against the Diamondbacks.Arizona stole 13 bases in 15 attempts in the series, tied for the third-most in the majors in a three-gamer series since the Diamondbacks began play in 1998. Only Miami (17, 2000) and Texas (14, 2010) had more.The Diamondbacks got three quality starts in the Mets series, the first time that had happened since they had four quality starts in a four-game sweep at Philadelphia from June 17-20.Arizona starters gave up 23 runs (17 earned) in 8 2/3 innings against Boston, and left-hander Patrick Corbin was moved to the bullpen after giving up eight runs (four earned) Friday.
