Bold Gold Media Group will air all 140 regular season games as well as any post-season games, the Triple-A All-Star Game and the Triple-A Baseball National Championship Game on their multi-station network.  Listeners can tune in to The Game Radio Network, which consists of 1400 WICK-AM (Lackawanna County), 1440 WCDL-AM (Lackawanna County & Pocono Lake Region), 1340 WYCK-AM (Luzerne County), 100.7 FM (Wilkes-Barre & surrounding areas) and 106.7 FM in the Pocono Lake Region (Wayne & Pike Counties).
