415 Media Flash: Steve Bitker AM Sports Guy at KCBS Retiring

 FLASH...


I'VE LEARNED through a radio CBS source:


KCBS's Sports anchor, Steve Bitker, is calling it quits after 30-plus years. He'll do his last broadcast in May.

Bitker, an Alameda native and resident, also did fill-in PBP work for the Oakland A's. A replacement hasn't been announced but my guess is that it will be either Kevin Radich (currently the afternoon drive anchor) or Ted Ramey, a fill-in sports anchor and traffic reporter.


ND, Jennifer Seelig, announced the move with a memo to KCBS staff.

  2. Won't miss him for a minute. Now, can we dump "KCBS news time" Bunger?

  3. Kevin the Rat is a logical choice, but IMO having both him and Kim Wonderley on mornings would be rough on them. (I could be wrong.) I would guess Joe Hughes has a good chance of moving into a full-time sports slot.

    1. Joe Hughes is beyond awful. College students sound better than him

  4. Steve is a pro and lucky he was able to make a career out of broadcasting on radio. KCBS continues on a steep decline down the path of mediocrity
