Reports from both the Oakland Tribune and Contra Costa Times indicate that no decisions on the A’s broadcast team will be made until after Thanksgiving. Negotiations will start on a new contract for long-time broadcaster Ken Korach, who would presumably fill the late Bill King’s #1 spot. I remember King also holding a “Director of Broadcasting” title at one time, and I wonder if Korach will be gunning for that as well (I need to check a recent media guide). Hank Greenwald is officially re-retired, and he may help his son Doug move from the Fresno Grizzlies’ booth to Oakland. Other local notable candidates include Steve Bitker (KCBS and part-time radio with the A’s), Ted Robinson (Stanford football, recently of the Mets and Giants) and Roxy Bernstein (Cal sports, Florida Marlins). A decision regarding the makeup of the TV booth should be made in the same timeframe.
