MINNEAPOLIS-ST. PAUL, MN – The Minnesota Twins, in conjunction with Entercom, the unrivaled leader in sports radio and home of RADIO.COM, the fastest growing digital audio platform in America, announced today the ability for metro-area baseball fans to access a free live stream of Twins Radio game broadcasts for the remainder of the 2020 regular season via the RADIO.COM app and website, or on RADIO.COM via select smart speakers. The radio broadcast will remain on terrestrial radio throughout Twins Territory via the Treasure Island Baseball Network, and in the metro on 830 WCCO (WCCO-AM), the flagship station of the Twins, and simulcast on sister station 102.9 The Wolf (KMNB-FM).

“With this development, Twins fans can now take our radio broadcasts with them anywhere they go,” said Twins President & CEO Dave St. Peter. “As we continue exploring avenues to provide increased fan access, especially during this season and what should be a thrilling stretch run, we thank Entercom for their partnership. From pregame lineups through postgame analysis; on the radio, phone, smart speaker or computer, it’s never been easier for fans to listen to Twins baseball.”

Beginning with tonight’s Twins vs. Chicago White Sox contest and throughout the final month of the 2020 pennant race, the RADIO.COM free live stream will feature the 830 WCCO game feed with Cory Provus and two-time World Series champion Dan Gladden; additionally, fans can also stream the Pregame Lineup Card and Postgame Download hosted by Kris Atteberry. The stream will be geo-fenced to the 15-county metro area which includes Anoka, Carver, Chisago, Dakota, Hennepin, Isanti, Le Sueur, Mille Lacs, Pierce, Ramsey, Scott, Sherburne, St. Croix, Washington and Wright counties.

“As the playoff push heats up, we’re happy to offer fans even more access to our premier Twins gameday coverage which is long overdue,” said Shannon Knoepke, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Entercom Minneapolis. “In the age of mobile and smart speaker consumption growth, expanding our broadcast to digital is a natural progression to better serve fans – whether they are at home or on the go.”
