Let's be a little bit fair, it might be their 3rd child child together, but I believe that this child is a boy. If that is the case this is actually his first son, plus I realize in our world the birth of a child seems like a routine thing, but the truth is childbirth is still quite dangerous and we really do not know the detail of the pregnancy. So getting an unexpected call that your wife is going into labor weeks earlier than expected is more than enough cause for him to run off, plus I am sure the people at ESPN knew that it was a possibility he was on the simulcast with 3 others so its not like he ran off and left dead air.
