Season's Greetings - 50,000 watt Class A MLB AM Radio Broadcasters
« on: March 31, 2021, 1810 UTC »
To my knowledge and research, these are the 2021 50,000 watt Class A stations carrying major league baseball in English this year.  There are other 50,000 watt stations broadcasting baseball but they are class B stations.  Please free feel to add and/or correct.  All are flagships unless noted.  Affiliates may carry alternative programming at times (Blue Jays' Montreal Affiliate Hockey/Soccer).  A loss from last season according to research is WFED 1500 former flagship of the Nationals.  Also, WMVP is a little less favorable here than the White Sox former WGN.

 660am WFAN  New York Yankees
 670am WSCR  Chicago Cubs
 680am KNBR  San Francisco Giants
 690am CKGM  Toronto Blue Jays   Affiliate in Montreal, Quebec - English Service
 700am WLW    Cincinnati Reds
 710am KIRO    Seattle Mariners
 830am WCCO  Minnesota Twins
 850am KOA     Colorado Rockies
 880am WCBS   New York Mets
1000am WMVP Chicago White Sox
1020am KDKA  Pittsburgh Pirates*
1080am WTIC   Boston Red Sox   Affiliate in Hartford, CT
1080am KRLD   Texas Rangers - Broadcasts when there are conflicts for KRLD-FM Flagship
1100am WTAM  Cleveland Indians
1120am KMOX  Saint Louis Cardinals
1140am WRVA Washington Nationals.  Affiliate in Richmond, VA

*The Pirates' website mentions some games on KDKA 1020 am, all afternoon weekday games and "select" other games.

Cool. Something to DX for during the summer season. I already can receive at least three of those stations regularly (KIRO, KNBR & KOA). Will have to try for some of the others.

Thanks for posting the list.
