Padres add to the broadcast team
Andy Masur Joins Padres
Jerry Coleman gets contract extension
The San Diego Padres today announced the addition of Chicago Cubs and Loyola University Chicago radio voice Andy Masur to the club’s radio broadcast team. He’ll join Ted Leitner and Jerry Coleman in the booth for the 2007 season. The club also announced that it has extended the contract of Jerry Coleman through the 2009 season. Padres Chief Executive Officer Sandy Alderson made both announcements.
“We are excited that Ted, Jerry and now Andy will be calling Padres action for the foreseeable future,” said Alderson. “Andy is going to bring a new dynamic to an already stellar team that includes the voice of the Padres in Ted Leitner and a Hall of Famer in Jerry Coleman.”
Masur will provide play-by-play and color commentary for Padres broadcasts on the Friars’ radio flagship, XX Sports Radio (1090 AM and 105.7 FM). Most recently Masur served as a pre- and postgame host for Cubs games and called play-by-play action. He also worked as a sports anchor and reporter for WGN Radio, the Cubs flagship. Additionally, Masur has been the radio voice of the Loyola Men’s basketball team since 2002. The Illinois native received B.S. in Mass Communications, Radio & Television from Bradley University (IL).
“Some of the great radio broadcasters have come from WGN providing Cubs play-by-play,” said Broadcast Company of the Americas (BCA) President John Lynch. “Andy will add his unique style to one of the longest running and best broadcast partnerships in all of sports. San Diegans will come to love Andy and he’s a great addition to XX Radio.”
The 2007 season will mark Coleman’s 34th season behind the microphone for the Padres and 57th in Major League Baseball, having been a player, manager, club executive and broadcaster. In 2005, Coleman was awarded the National Baseball Hall of Fame’s Ford C. Frick Award for excellence in baseball broadcasting. He was enshrined in the Padres Hall of Fame in 2001.
