With both eyes reddened by an infection, NBC's Bob Costas said he will sit out the network's prime-time Olympics coverage on Tuesday. Taking his place in Sochi will be ''Today'' anchor Matt Lauer. Costas has been wearing glasses since the start of the Sochi Olympics because of an infection in his left eye. ''I was trying to throw a complete game here, but I think we're going to have to go to the bullpen, and I don't know if you're aware of this or not, but you're Mariano Rivera, at least tonight,'' Costas said.
