The NEW YORK METS have officially announced that the team's radio broadcasts will move from iHEARTMEDIA News-Talk WOR-A/NEW YORK to crosstown ENTERCOM News WCBS-A under a new deal that will run from next season through 2025. The deal includes Spanish-language broadcast rights and cross-promotion on all ENTERCOM NEW YORK stations as well. ENTERCOM already has the rights to NEW YORK YANKEES baseball, which airs on Sports WFAN-A-F. The METS moved from WFAN to WOR in the 2014 season.
“We’re pleased to be the new radio home of the Mets,” said ENTERCOM Regional President and Market Manager SUSAN LARKIN. “We remain committed to bringing our listeners and partners the most exciting sports content from their hometown teams, especially in the NEW YORK metropolitan area, where we will be the radio home for both MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL clubs beginning in 2019.”
“We are excited to join the ENTERCOM family, and look forward to leveraging the power of their portfolio of stations in the nation’s largest market,” said METS EVP LOU DEPAOLI. “This new partnership allows us to continue delivering outstanding radio broadcasts to our passionate fan base, while also reaching a wide audience via cross promotions on all of ENTERCOM’s NEW YORK stations.”
