SF Radio:49ers’ New Radio Voice Is Kate Scott

Kate Scott
Kate Scott, Bay Area sports media personality, joins the ranks of gender-barrier busters when she does radio play-by-play for Sunday’s 49ers-Texans preseason game.

According to sfgate.com, Scott will also do the 49ers-Broncos game the following Sunday as she steps in for Bob Fitzgerald, who is moving to the TV side for the two games while Ted Robinson covers diving at the Rio Olympics.

Niner broadcasts can be heard on KNBR 680 and KGO 810 on the AM dial, along with KSAN 107.7 on FM radio.

Scott will be the third woman to do NFL play-by-play. Gayle Sierens worked one regular-season game for NBC in 1987, and Beth Mowins did two Raiders’ preseason games on TV last season and will do the same this season for KTVU-KTVU-plus.

Scott is the anchor on KNBR 680 AM’s morning “Murph and Mac” show, and does play-by-play of women’s sports for the Pac 12 Network.
