Philadelphia Phillies Radio Network

The Philadelphia Phillies Radio Network is a network of 21 radio stations in Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey that air Major League Baseball games of the Philadelphia Phillies.[1] The lead announcers are Scott Franzke with play-by-play and Larry Andersen with color commentary.[2] The flagship station is WIP-FM 94.1 in Philadelphia. The broadcasts were discontinued on the former AM flagship station WPHT 1210 in 2016 (both stations share the same ownership and the move from WPHT was done to reduce pre-emptions of its talk radio schedule).[3]

Harry Kalas called Phillies games on the radio and television broadcasts from 1971 until his death in 2009.

WTTM in Lindenwold, New Jersey and WWAC in Atlantic City, New Jersey also air a separate broadcast in Spanish. Angel Castillo is the play by play announcer, while Bill Kulik provides color commentary.[4]
