In a Tweet by USA Today’s Bob Nightengale, he reports that Barry Larkin has left his position at MLB Network television as an analyst and has joined ESPN.

Sources close to Nick Diunte of Examiner.com reported at the end of January that Larkin was rumored to be departing MLB Network for ESPN’s Baseball Tonight.

Larkin had been with MLB Network since late 2008, and it’s likely that the 46-year-old will be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2011.
