WBZ-FM has carried the Patriots since its launch in 2009 after being with predecessor 104.1 WBCN beginning in 1995. The station will carry a three hour ?Patriots Preview” pre-game show mainly hosted by Jim Murray with Marc Bertrand filling-in on some games along with Boston Globe columnist Chris Gasper co-hosting as well as a three hour “Patriots Postgame”.
Patriots VP/Corporate Sponsorship Sales Murray Kohl stated, “Patriots fans throughout New England have come to rely on the sound quality, reach and overall coverage that 98.5 The Sports Hub has delivered since they launched 15 years ago. Bob Socci and Scott Zolak are perfectly paired to deliver all the action to Patriots fans throughout the region. We are happy to extend this partnership for another 10 years and hope it will continue for decades to come.”
Beasley Media Group Boston VP/Market Manager Mary Menna commented, “The Patriots are a religion in New England. We are honored to continue broadcasting the games to our fans for at least the next decade! The Kraft family, the Patriots staff and the entire team are such amazing partners.”
?The Patriots have been a cornerstone of our programming since we launched the Sports Hub,? said station Program Director, Rick Radzik. ?As the team enters this new era, I?m thrilled that 98.5 The Sports Hub will be the home of the game broadcasts for the next decade, while also continuing to provide an outlet for Pats fans to talk football year-round.?
