Auburn Doubledays announce radio agreement with WAUB

AUBURN — The Auburn Doubledays minor-league baseball team on April 17 announced it has forged a radio broadcast agreement to air 38 of its games on WAUB 98.1 FM / 1590 AM (Finger Lakes News Radio) this upcoming season.

Financial terms were not disclosed.

This year, all Thursday, Friday, and Saturday Doubledays games — home and away — will be broadcast live on WAUB, according to a news release from the baseball club. Home games on July 20 and Sept. 6 and 7 will also be carried live on WAUB — for a total of 38 radio broadcasts.

Each of those broadcasts will also be available on the WAUB app and online at FingerLakesDailyNews.com.

The other 38 regular-season Doubledays games played from Sunday through Wednesday will be available live on AuburnDoubledays.com, the MiLB First Pitch app, Tunein.com, and the TuneIn app. The 38 games that air on WAUB will also be available on those digital venues. 

 “We’re very excited about this new agreement and what it means for our fans,” Mike Voutsinas, Auburn Doubledays general manager, said in the release. “Now that live audio will be available for all 76 of our games, it will be easier for us to promote our brand.”

The Auburn team starts its baseball season on Friday, June 19, at Batavia. It will play its first home game at Falcon Park in Auburn on June 25 against the West Virginia Black Bears.

David Lauterbach, a Syracuse University broadcast and digital journalism major, will call the games as the Doubledays play-by-play broadcaster this season.

The Auburn Doubledays club is a Single-A short-season affiliate of Major League Baseball’s Washington Nationals. The team is part of the New York-Penn League.
