Orioles Back To WBAL's Nest

[DToTheJ]

The Baltimore Orioles have decided to resume their radio broadcasts via WBAL-AM, which was home to the O's for nearly 20 years before the team fled to upstart 105.7 The Fan:

So, with WBAL now possessing rights to the O's again, as well as the Ravens, what becomes of the future of WJZ-FM?

And here's the news from WBAL - which, predictably, does not refer to 105.7:

Alright! This is great news along with the Cardinals headed back to 1120/KMOX! Still to go: Blue Jays back to 900/CHML, Pirates back to 1020/KDKA & Braves back to 750/WSB!

Fully agree with you N1WVQ. I enjoyed the days when I could listen to a Braves/Reds game on both the flag ship stations (like the night Gene Garber ended the Pete Rose hitting streak) and would love to have the Pirates back on KDKA. Driving on I-95 in the Philadelphia area, in early spring there is nearly always an afternoon game I can catch from the Yankees, Mets and Phils. Love it!

The Dodgers went back to their old flagship, KABC/790, a year or so ago, as well. Although not in time to save KABC, which is a shell of its former self.
