"Having the opportunity to come to the ballpark on a daily basis and play a small part in the gameday experience has always been a dream of mine, and I am excited to share my passion for the game with Ports fans."
Jensen has previous experience broadcasting in the California League, as he was a fill-in voice for both the Ports and Modesto Nuts during the 2019 season.

"Alex has broadcast numerous sports in Northern California, including serving as our fill-in broadcaster last season. I look forward him to quickly endearing himself to our fans and becoming the voice of Stockton Ports baseball."
As the voice of the Gaels men's basketball team, Jensen broadcast games starring current NBA player Matthew Dellavedova as well as second-team All-American Jock Landale.
Jensen, a native of Oakland, CA has broadcast five NCAA Tournament games as well for the Gaels.
"Having the chance to stay in Northern California and immerse myself in a new community is an exciting proposition. I thoroughly enjoyed the time I spent in Stockton during the 2019 season and can't wait to meet Ports fans and get started."
