Brewers TV And Radio Spring Training Schedule For 2013 |


Brewers Spring Training TV and Radio Schedule
The Milwaukee Brewers announced late last week the media schedule for coverage of the 2013 spring training games. Thirty-four games will be split between television, radio, and webcasts on the team's official homepage. The majority of the broadcast exhibition matches will be covered from the team's Spring Training home at Maryvale Park, though a pair of preseason games against the White Sox will be streamed from Miller Park.

Seventeen of the thirty-four covered games will be broadcast solely on the team's Major League Baseball homepage. Starting on February twenty-third, the team will first take on Oakland at Maryvale. Another five consecutive games will be webcast over the next five days, all at Maryvale except a February twenty-seventh match-up at the Royals spring home-away-from-home, Surprise Recreation Campus.

The Brewers webcast is highlighted by a March fifth special exhibition game against Canada's World Baseball Classic team, which includes Brewers reviler John Axford. The webcast schedule concludes on the twenty-fifth of that month with a game at Phoenix Municipal Stadium, the A's spring venue.

Fox Sports Wisconsin's Bill Schroeder and Brian Anderson will join radio's Joe Block on the play-by-plays for the webcast.

Block and Bob Uecker will be on the call for all sixteen spring games broadcast on the Brewers Radio Network at WTMJ 620. Kicking off the state-wide coverage on March first, the Brewers meet Colorado at Talking Sticks before welcoming the Angels to Maryvale on the second. A two game radio hiatus takes effect following that game. Coverage returns on the sixth for a meeting with Seattle.

Fox Sports Wisconsin will televise five games during March, including the first of two final exhibition matches at Miller Park against the White Sox. That game will air on Friday the twenty-ninth at 7:10PM, while the first of the five televised games will be shown from Maryvale at 3:05PM against the Dodgers. Schroeder and Anderson will call plays for three of the five Fox Sports broadcasts, while another two, a March nineteenth game against the Angels and a game on the twenty-fourth against the Padres, will be broadcast by other regions of Fox Sports, and will be hosted by those region’s on-air personalities.
