The Mets officially have a new radio broadcast home.
The Mets will be heard on WOR 710 AM starting this upcoming season, the team announced Monday. The station will broadcast spring training, regular-season and (ahem) postseason games, as well as the pre- and post-game shows.
In addition, the Mets and Clear Channel Media and Entertainment, the company that owns WOR, announced a five-year multimedia marketing partnership that includes the six Clear Channel stations in the New York City metropolitan area.
“This breakthrough partnership provides us with the ability to serve our loyal fans and attract a new generation of fans through Clear Channel’s massive reach and ability to target key demographics across the New York market,” said Mets COO Jeff Wilpon in a statement.
The new deal ends the Mets’ longtime broadcasting partnership with WFAN, which will now air Yankees games.
