Baseball radio in the Northeast

[Kevin Vahey]

Nothing in CT surprises me as Citi Field is easy to get to off 95 over the Whitestone.

I am wondering if NYY radio built the network when WMCA was the flagship in the 70's.

BTW how odd that the Red Sox have never used WBZ - they have over the decades been on 1260, 850, 1510, 99.5 and 680.

I never understood that -- there are pockets of western Mass. with some Mets fans, especially around Pittsfield, where they had their A-ball team for a spell.
