Somerset Patriots Announce Radio Broadcast Partnership With FOX Sports Radio New Jersey

We are happy that they will bring baseball to all of our fans locally and listening from anywhere online.”

“It’s a very thrilling time for both the Patriots and FOX Sports Radio New Jersey in our long history. We look forward to continuing to broadcast top-notch Somerset Patriots content to the Central New Jersey audience,” states Beasley Media New Jersey’s Senior Vice President & Regional Market Manager Dan Finn.
New in 2022, the Patriots welcome Manager of Media Relations and Broadcasting, Steven Cusumano, for his first season as the team’s play-by-play broadcaster.
