The Athletics have announced a new broadcasting partnership with iHeartRadio, ensuring that all regular season, spring training and potential postseason games will be available on KSTE-AM (Talk 650) and A's Cast, part of the iHeartRadio Network. This agreement extends the reach of A's games to a broader audience, including continued coverage in the Bay Area on iHeart Sports 960.

Veteran announcer Ken Korach will return to the booth for the 2025 season alongside Johnny Doskow and newcomer Chris Caray. In addition to game coverage, the partnership will bring a plethora of A's-themed programming. Talk 650 KSTE and A's Cast will feature "A's Cast Live," a pre-game show that will air for two and a half hours before every weeknight game, along with thirty-minute pre- and postgame shows surrounding each game.

The lineup includes the "A's Clubhouse Show" following each postgame segment and "A's After Dark" after every home game. Adding to the expertise, A's scout and fan favorite Shooty Babbitt, along with Steve Sax, a former major league infielder and West Sacramento native, will contribute to the pre- and postgame discussions.
