The Cleveland Indians and iHeartMedia ink a multi-year agreement for WTAM-AM and WMMS-FM to continue as the "Flagship Home of the Cleveland Indians" through at least 2023. As part of the deal, WTAM will air all regular season games and WMMS will simulcast the majority of Indians games. iHM Cleveland will also air 15 live Spring Training games and will continue to distribute Tribe games to the entire Cleveland Clinic Indians Radio Network, which consists of 27 stations across Ohio and Western Pennsylvania.
"The Cleveland Indians are thrilled to continue our 20-year partnership with iHeartMedia," said Cleveland Indians Senior Director of Communications Curtis Danburg. "We are fortunate this partnership continues to provide our fans great access to Indians baseball on WTAM and WMMS for years to come."
"We are excited to extend our successful relationship with the Cleveland Indians," added iHM North Ohio Region President Keith Hotchkiss. "This multiyear agreement allows us to continue to deliver Cleveland Indians programming and coverage to millions of fans on WTAM and WMMS and throughout the country on iHeartRadio."
The Indians and iHM Cleveland will continue to also provide non-game programming like weekly shows "Tribe Talk" and "Hot Stove Weekly."
