Baltimore Orioles Radio Network

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Baltimore Orioles Radio Network comprises 39 stations in five states and the District of Columbia.[1]

Beginning in 2022, the Orioles' flagship station is once again WBAL/1090 AM and is joined by sister station WIYY/97.9 FM; a game conflict with the Baltimore Ravens sees one station carrying the Orioles, and the other the Ravens. The contract is for 6 years.[2] Jim Hunter calls play by play for the majority of games, with ESPN broadcaster Kevin Brown stepping in for approximately 50 games. Hunter took the primary role calling Orioles radio broadcasts following the retirement of Joe Angel, "The Voice of the Orioles" in 2004.[3] All 162 regular season baseball games are currently broadcast throughout the network.
