"Rock 100.5 gives us a fantastic opportunity to bring the excitement of this young Braves baseball team to Atlanta's favorite rock station."
"We're excited to associate the Rock 100.5 brand with one of Atlanta's iconic brands. Our fan base maps perfectly with the Atlanta Braves," said Sean Shannon, Vice President and Market Manager for Cumulus Atlanta. "We're looking forward to many sunny seasons of Atlanta Braves baseball on Atlanta's best and only rock station, Rock 100.5."
