LAS VEGAS, Nevada — The Athletics are phasing into Las Vegas way before 2028 by opening a welcome center in the Vegas Valley southwest suburbs, supporting youth baseball and announcing today that Las Vegas baseball fans can listen to and watch A’s game on local radio and TV stations.

FOX 5 and the Silver State Sports and Entertainment Station will televise 20 A’s games on TV, while the Las Vegas Sports Network will broadcast all 162 regular season games,  primarily on ESPN KWWN 1100 AM, 100.9 FM, and KLAV 1230AM The Game.

The NBC Sports California broadcasts on FOX 5 KVVU will feature play-by-play announcers Jenny Cavnar and Chris Caray, who return for their third seasons, alongside former A’s pitcher Dallas Braden, who returns for his ninth season as lead TV analyst. Here are the 20 games:

The A’s radio broadcasts will feature a familiar voice, Henderson’s own Ken Korach, returning for his 31st season on the A’s broadcast team and his 21st as the lead radio announcer.

He will be joined by fellow returning radio voice Johnny Doskow, who is entering his fourth season with the Green & Gold. Chris Caray will also be joining the radio broadcast team as he returns for his second year as radio play-by-play announcer.

The A’s are building a $2 billion, 33,000-fan, domed stadium on the Strip and plan to host two three-game series in Las Vegas at Las Vegas in June. State lawmakers, in 2023, approved a bill earmarking $380 million in public assistance to help the A’s build their stadium on a nine-acre footprint at the former Tropicana hotel site at the southeast corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Tropicana Avenue. The A’s say they will use $350 million of the $380 million of the government aid to help build the ballpark.

The A’s say the stadium will be ready for the 2028 MLB season.
