List of Cleveland Guardians broadcasters
The Cleveland Guardians are currently heard on the radio via flagship sister stations WTAM (1100 AM and 106.9 FM) and WMMS (100.7 FM), with Tom Hamilton and Jim Rosenhaus comprising the announcing team. While primarily an English-language station, WARF (1350 AM) airs Spanish-language broadcasts of all home games with the announcing team of Rafa Hernández-Brito and Carlos Baerga.
Televised game coverage airs on Guardians TV, which launched for the 2025 season both as a cable network and as a streaming service. Matt Underwood handles play-by-play, Rick Manning is lead analyst (with Chris Gimenez filling in occasionally) and Andre Knott is the field reporter. WKYC channel 3 airs 10 over-the-air simulcasts of Guardians TV-produced games per season.
Years are listed in descending order.
