WCBS-AM and New York Mets

Audacy is expanding its broadcast partnership with the New York Mets that will make the Audacy app the free digital streaming home for all Mets games as part of the WCBS-AM's flagship partnership with the team. English and Spanish language broadcasts of Mets baseball will be available on the Audacy app for consumers within the Mets broadcast territory and Mets.com beginning opening day on April 7.

"Following one of the most successful offseasons in franchise history, we're thrilled to gear up for the 2022 season by making our outstanding coverage of the Mets even more accessible to millions of local fans," said Audacy New York Senior Vice President and Market Manager Chris Oliviero. "In the car, on their phone or however they may be listening - in English or in Spanish - the Amazin' faithful will now have the ability to seamlessly catch every pitch during what is sure to be an exciting season."

"We continue to enjoy a great partnership with Audacy and their ability to reach Mets fans," added New York Mets President Sandy Alderson. "We are also thrilled with the different platforms, both in English and Spanish, that will give our fans the opportunity to follow the team for each and every game."

Additionally, WCBS 880 has also reached a content sharing agreement with WEPN-AM (ESPN 1050) that will bring WCBS 880-produced Spanish language broadcasts of all regular and postseason games to ESPN 1050 for the 2022 season.

Veteran broadcaster Howie Rose will continue as the lead voice in the Mets radio booth where he will be joined by Wayne Randazzo. Hispanic voice of the Mets Max Perez Jimenez will call the games on ESPN 1050 alongside Nestor Rosario.
