sportscast 指“体育节目广播”本身，而 sportscaster 指“广播员”这类人，两者形近义不同。描述“他是广播员”要用表示人的 -er 名词 sportscaster，不能用 sportscast 指代人。

Pronunciation & Spelling
Caster, broadcaster, forecaster, newscaster, and podcaster match the ending of sportscaster in spelling and sound (/kɑːstə/), though sportscaster’s main stress is on sports-, so these are not exact rhymes. Disaster and plaster are lookalikes ending in -aster but are pronounced /dɪˈzɑːstə/ and /ˈplɑːstə/; they lack the /k/ and do not match the -caster sound.
