The Atlanta Braves and Dickey Broadcasting Company have
announced a multi-year extension to keep Dickey Broadcasting Company the Braves
exclusive radio rightsholder. Dickey Broadcasting Company became the Braves
exclusive radio rightsholder in 2010.
Veteran Braves broadcasters, Don Sutton and Jim Powell were
also signed to multi-year contract extensions.
"Dickey Broadcasting has been a fantastic partner and
rightsholder and we're excited to continue our partnership," said Derek Schiller,
Braves Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing.
"We look forward
to growing Braves programming and hearing our games on All News 106.7 while we
continue to give Atlanta Braves fans throughout the Southeast the best radio
broadcast in baseball with Don and Jim at the helm."
The agreement includes all 162 games per season which will
air on two Atlanta
flagship radio stations, WCNN The Fan 680 AM
and translator W299AG 93.7 FM, and new in 2014, the broadcast will shift
from rock WNNX 100.5 FM to an even stronger signal on All News WYAY-FM 106.7.
