OAKLAND, Calif. – The Oakland A’s will launch A’s Cast Live from the field on Tuesday, May 28 at 4 p.m. PT. The new show, hosted by Chris Townsend and co-hosted by a variety of A’s personalities, will include game highlights and emerging story lines from around Major League Baseball.

A’s Cast Live will welcome guests from the Bay Area and across the nation, including players, managers, broadcasters, and writers from the A’s and visiting teams. The show will air live from the field and feature behind-the-scenes access to batting practice and warmups when the A’s are home; it will air from an East Bay studio when the team is on the road.

“Since launching our A’s Cast station at the beginning of this season, we’ve received incredible listenership and feedback,” said A’s COO Chris Giles. “A’s Cast Live is not only for fans of Bay Area baseball. It will provide increased baseball coverage and behind-the-scenes content and interviews for all baseball fans to enjoy.”
