Twins extend radio contract with Audacy, will stay on WCCO

The Twins may not have a television home for next season, but they now know that their radio home will continue to be WCCO after coming to an agreement to extend their partnership.

The Twins and Audacy announced a multi-year extension on Monday morning that will keep the Twins on 830 WCCO with a simulcast on 102.9 The Wolf and free streaming on the Audacy app for local fans. The length of the contract has not been disclosed.

WCCO has been the Twins’ flagship radio home for 53 of 64 seasons. The Twins returned to the station in 2018 after an 11-year hiatus and have been there ever since. They explored other options this offseason as their deal with WCCO expired before reaching a new agreement.

“Audacy continues to be a terrific partner for the Minnesota Twins, with an AM, FM and digital streaming presence that delivers our fans with one of the most extensive coverage maps in professional sports,” Twins executive chair Joe Pohlad said in a statement. “Baseball on the radio remains a cherished tradition in Twins Territory.”

As for a potential new television deal — the Twins had a one-year contract with Diamond Sports Group, which runs Bally Sports North — team president and CEO Dave St. Peter said on a Monday morning radio appearance that news on that could come quickly, perhaps in the next couple of weeks.
