Beasley is adding to the staff at 98.5 The Sports Hub. The Boston station announced new and expanded roles for three people including Joe Murray.
Murray has contributed to multiple day parts during his time with The Sports Hub. He will now take over the night show, which was vacated by Adam Jones earlier this year. That role will also see him anchoring coverage of the Bruins and Celtics.
Currently, Murray serves as a key component of The Sports Hub’s gambling coverage. He is also part of the station’s New England Patriots postgame show.
LeRoy Irvin is expanding his role as well. He will move into the seat on the Patriots postgame show vacated by Murray. He will also continue serving as a weekend host and as co-host of sister station Hot 96.9’s The Get Up Crew.
The Sports Hub is also adding Cerrone Battle to the lineup. He has been seen on NBC Sports Boston and heard on The Play Action Podcast. He will contribute to night and weekend programming.
“Joe, Leroy and Cerrone all grew up in Boston and, like our listeners, have an engrained passion for sports,” Program Director Rick Radzik said in a press release. “It’s nice to see Joe’s many years of dedication pay off, have Leroy’s role at the station elevated, and hear Cerrone once again in his hometown. I’m happy for all three of them!”
“Congratulations to Joe and Leroy on their well-deserved expanded roles on the Sports Hub and a big welcome Cerrone to the team,” Beasley Media Group Boston Vice President and Market Manager Mary Menna added.
