World Series radio fever

Back in the day, AM radio stations fought to broadcast the World Series to a wide audience. Not so in the Bay Area now. Try to find tonight's Game 1 on an AM station and you cannot. The World Series on the AM dial is strictly MIA. Sad. A sign of the times.

I wholeheartedly concur. I can almost see why there are rules about subscribing to the MLB app for out of market games if you can't catch the nighttime skywave but it's ridiculous not to have the World Series broadcast nationally.

It is broadcasted nationwide on ESPN radio affiliates, Sirius XM or the ESPN App. I was running an errand during Game 2 and heard it on 1050 AM in the Bay Area.

Apparently, someone got religion following the Tuesday AM no-show.

Tonight, Game 4 is on KNBR 680. Geez, where's Waldo?

Tonight, Game 5 is back on 1050. The Series is an orphan being shipped around the dial.

Baseball is by far the best sport on the radio.
