Where can I listen to the World Series

I contacted the WEEI Facebook group the other day and was told WRKO 680 would have
games 1 (tonight), 4 (Sun?) and 6 (week from tonight). WEEI 850 otherwise.

ESPN radio has it and if for some reasons these don't work for you try
1050 NYC
1410 Hartford
1000 Chicago

Also ESPN and the local feeds are on XM Radio

From WEEI.com schedule page
THU
8:00PM 12:00AM World Series Game 2: Rangers @ Giants

SAT
7:00PM 11:00PM World Series Game 3: Giants @ Rangers

WRKO's schedule page does not list any world series coverage but note below:

The actual reply I got on facebook/WEEI Sports Radio Network:

>>Hi Bob, WRKO is carrying Games 1, 4 and 6 while here on WEEI we are carrying Games 2, 3, 5, and 7.
 
Maybe WRKO won the Entercom "All-Star Game" over WEEI for "home field advantage"... ::)
 
When Entercom got Sox rights the games were mostly on RKO but they put some on EEI of
course to give them a slice of the pie. When WRKO's ratings didn't improve and EEI's
weren't doing much at night--plus with the arrival of the Sports Hub--they shifted all
games to WEEI but there would still be an occasional conflict with the Celtics (who also had
been on RKO but got shifted to EEI). Now this time of year you have conflicts with
Celtics games so RKO got World Series on those nights.

Monday night I think RKO will get Monday Night Football and EEI will carry World Series. This is inevitable when you have one station with several things they have to or want to run. In NYC
for awhile, 1050 WEPN had some baseball playoff games but when other local sports needed
to be run, the baseball playoffs were shifted to the Radio Disney at 1560 though I don't think they've done that lately. 1100 WTAM in Cleveland had some Cavs/Indians conflicts, etc.
 
Then just put all the games on WRKO. Radio is a lot easier than radio people make it sometimes.

I'm 26 and male with disposable income. Do as I say, WEEI.
