OKC Dodgers, iHeartMedia Announce Extension

Team broadcasts to remain on 1340 "The Game" through 2018
By
January 25, 2016

OKLAHOMA CITY - The Oklahoma City Dodgers and iHeartMedia Oklahoma City have announced an extension to their current partnership, keeping OKC Dodgers games on 1340 "The Game" (KGHM-AM) through the 2018 season.

The Dodgers and iHeartMedia have been broadcast partners since 2011. All 144 OKC Dodgers games will air on 1340 "The Game," 1340thegame.com, and through the iHeartRadio mobile app beginning 15 minutes before first pitch with "Dodgers on Deck" and concluding with "The Dodgers Post-Game Report" following each game. 

Nationally syndicated broadcasts of the Triple-A All-Star Game and the Triple-A National Championship will continue to air on 1340 "The Game" as well. During the season, "OKC Dodgers Rewind" will air as a daily recap of the previous game across other iHeartMedia properties.

"Voice of the OKC Dodgers" Alex Freedman will handle all broadcast duties for the fifth consecutive season. Freedman and 1340 "The Game" are the reigning back-to-back winners of the "Best Play-By-Play" award presented by the Oklahoma Association of Broadcasters.

"This was an easy decision for both parties involved," said OKC Dodgers President/General Manager Michael Byrnes. "We've had nothing but a great experience working with iHeartMedia. This partnership has been valuable for both sides, and we look forward to continue to improve upon it."

iHeartMedia Oklahoma City will continue to have sponsorship elements present at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark and on Dodgers-related materials, such as schedules, in-stadium signage, and the PlayBall! program.

"iHeartMedia Oklahoma City and 1340 'The Game' are very excited to continue our partnership with the Dodgers," said iHeartMedia Oklahoma City Market President Bill Hurley. "Our association with the Dodgers continues to be a great way to extend our brand on 'The Game' and on the iHeartRadio mobile app."

For the second straight season, iHeartMedia Oklahoma City will also serve as an affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers Radio Network. Games will primarily air on KTOK-AM 1000, and can be heard on 1340 "The Game" when they do not conflict with OKC Dodgers games.

The OKC Dodgers open play Thursday, April 7 in Nashville, and the home opener is Friday, April 15 against the Nashville Sounds at 7:05 p.m. For information on 2016 Dodgers ticket packages and group outings, call (405) 218-1000 or visit okcdodgers.com.
