Chance King has been tapped to host a new show for FOX Sports Net called “Kid Pitch,” a rep for “Larry King Live” confirmed to Access Hollywood.

The show, which will start filming in February, will focus on kids talking about baseball, in addition to interviews with Major League Baseball players.

“I couldn’t be more excited for Chance; he really knows and loves baseball, and will be one heck of an anchor,” the elder King said in a statement to Access.

The CNN host also confirmed Chance’s brother, 9-year-old Cannon, will also appear on the show.

“Both boys are cute and huge sports fans – what more could you ask for?” King added.

According to TMZ, who first reported the news, actor and FOX’s former “Best Damn Sports Show Period” co-host Tom Arnold will direct “Kid Pitch.”
