The San Diego Padres released their television and radio broadcast schedule for spring training. Thirty of the Friars’ Cactus League games will be available to stream or listen to, as per MLB.com.
FOX Sports San Diego will broadcast thirteen games, with Don Orsillio, Mark Grant, and Mark Sweeney in the booth and Bob Scanlan down in the press box on-call for ten of those.
