Ted Leitner and Jesse Agler will continue play-by-play duties when the Padres switch to KBZT-94.9 FM for the 2017 season, Entercom San Diego announced Thursday afternoon. The Union-Tribune reported in May that the team was shifting its radio home form The Mighty 1090 AM to the modern rock station through the 2021 season.
The five-year deal was originally announced by CEO David Field during the company’s quarterly earnings call.
The new partnership will include 30 minutes of pre- and post-game coverage, as well as cross-promotion on Entercom San Diego’s Sunny 98.1 and KSON-FM.
“We are very excited about our partnership with Entercom and the ability to offer Padres games on the FM dial,” Padres Chief Marketing Officer Wayne Partello said in a Thursday release.
