106.7 The Fan has announced a multi-year extension to its flagship broadcast and digital partnership with the Washington Nationals.
As part of the partnership, Nationals baseball will be heard on The Fan and streamed digitally on the Audacy app for fans within the Nats’ broadcast territory.
“Opening Day is finally here and we’re thrilled to celebrate the return of baseball season by extending our partnership with the Washington Nationals,” Ivy Savoy-Smith, senior vice president and market manager, Audacy Washington D.C, said. “We’re looking forward to continuing to serve as the home for everything Nats for the foreseeable future and give the team’s fans a front-row seat to the action on the field and top storylines throughout the year.”
In addition to broadcasting games, The Fan will welcome Mike Rizzo, Nationals president of baseball operations and general manager, on “The Sports Junkies” every Wednesday morning at 9 a.m.
And additional player interviews and features will be showcased on “Nats Insider” hosted by Dan Kolko, which will be heard on 106.7 The Fan and across multiple local Audacy stations and programs throughout the region.
For Opening Day this Thursday, there will be multiple broadcasts around Nationals Park to celebrate the return of another fun summer of baseball:

“We couldn’t be happier to partner with Audacy in bringing Nationals fans even more of the interviews and exclusive access they love,” Alan H. Gottlieb, COO of Lerner Sports Group, said. “From in-depth interviews with execs and top players, to off-the-field profiles and more Spanish and English bilingual content than ever before, Audacy offers a comprehensive look at our ball club from all angles.”
