Oakland A's Ink Extension with KGMZ/San Francisco

RADIO ONLINE | Friday, February 27, 2015

The Oakland Athletics and flagship station KGMZ-FM (95.7 FM The Game)/San Francisco have extended their partnership for four years, guaranteeing that A's baseball will be heard on the Entercom Sports outlet through at least the 2018 season. As part of the new deal, The Game will again broadcast all 162 regular season A's games, select spring training games, and all A's postseason contests, including the World Series. The A's and 95.7 first partnered in 2011.

Lead play-by-play talent Ken Korach (20 years with Oakland) and his partner Vince Cotroneo (10 years) will continue to serve as the A's primary broadcast team, while longtime A's broadcaster Ray Fosse -- entering his 30th consecutive season on A's radio -- will again join them during select games.

"We are extremely excited about the partnership extension with The Game," said A's VP/Broadcasting & Communications Ken Pries. "It's been an amazing partnership so far, and we look forward to many more seasons of A's baseball on 95.7 FM and all of the affiliates across the A's Radio Network."

"All of us at Entercom Communications are excited to extend the partnership between 95.7 The Game and the Oakland Athletics," said Market Manager Steve DiNardo. "95.7 The Game has grown as a brand-experiencing consistent ratings and revenue growth during our partnership with The A's-and we are delighted to continue serving as the destination for Oakland A's radio broadcasts for the next four seasons.
