Oakland Athletics Radio Network

The Oakland Athletics Radio Network consists of 15 AM stations and 7 FM translators or repeaters in the state of California. The Athletics are the only team in Major League Baseball and one of only two teams in major league sports to not have a flagship radio station or a station carrying games in their home market. Instead the team uses an exclusive channel on TuneIn called A's Cast to air the games in the Bay Area and that channel is the de facto flagship.[1] There is a 4-station Spanish-language network (all AM) with affiliates in italics. The Spanish-language network only airs night & weekend home games.[2]
