Sports WDAE/Tampa's Ronnie Lane (far left) will take on a new role as host of the signature Rays pre-game show "The Inside Pitch," beginning March 28. As he takes on this new role, he will step away from "The Ronnie & TKras Show," ending its nine-year run. Co-host Tom Krasniqi will host an all-new Sports program, maintaining the afternoon drive slot.

"We couldn't be more excited for Ronnie and Tom as they embark on their new opportunities at WDAE," said Program Director John Mamola. "These programs promise fresh content and compelling, engaging experiences for our listeners. We will continue the legacy of high performance the hosts built as a duo and the voice of Tampa Bay sports fanatics everywhere."

As the new host of "The Inside Pitch," Lane will lead extended coverage of the Tampa Bay Rays weekday game broadcasts with exclusive interviews and special content in lead up to WDAE's call of the game. Lane will also continue his seasonal hosting duties with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers radio network.

Krasniqi will remain in the same timeslot, working on new program currently in development. Executive Produced by Chris Mathis, the new program will air every weekday afternoon from 3-7pm ET. The yet-to-be named show will be the lead in to WDAE's evening play-by-play programming.
