WSKO (1260 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Syracuse, New York. It has a sports radio format and is owned by Cumulus Media with studios on James Street. "The Score" is the flagship station for all Syracuse Mets baseball games. In addition to carrying the Infinity Sports Network, a local program is heard in late mornings, The Manchild Show with Jim Lurch and Paul Esden.
By day, WSKO’s power is 5,000 watts non-directional. At night, to protect other stations on 1260 kHz from interference, it switches to a directional antenna with a four-tower array. The transmitter is on Andrews Road in DeWitt, near Interstate 481.
