Is there an FM radio station we can listen to for live broadcast of the game while we're attending on Saturday? It would be nice to hear the colour commentary on the radio (with earphones of course) at the same time as we enjoy the weather and the game atmosphere!

Also, will this same FM station live broadcast all home games?

Had to look it up but appears TSN1050 does the radio broadcast of the game.

Ahh, that's too bad, I only have an FM transmitter on my personal radio.

AM1050 doesn't do all the games (I think it was jays or raps that preempted it before), but they do many. Sometimes you get a dedicated radio caller, and sometimes it's just audio of the broadcast feed.

Were they not split between the Fan and TSN radio just like all the other MLSE teams, Leafs, Raptors etc.

That was the original idea, since Rogers and Bell took over. But TFC has fallen to TSN1050 mainly due to the fact that a) Fan 590 has 162 jays games to do, and b) TSN1050 has little to no radio properties in Toronto in the summer other than the Argos.

Not sure if you have a cell phone (or what type it might be), but personally I've used an app called TuneIn Radio in the past to listen to AM broadcasts of games, usually while traveling in other provinces/countries when I can't get a TV or MLS Live broadcast and it has usually worked out pretty well.

Radio Canada is a really good app that I've used for that.
