Chatham announces 2026 broadcast team
CHATHAM, Mass. — The Chatham Athletic Association today announced its broadcast team for the 2026 Chatham Anglers season.
Chase Abrams, a sophomore at the University of Rhode Island, and Jake Klein, a junior at Syracuse University, will provide play-by-play for every regular season and postseason Chatham game on the Cape Cod Baseball Network. Their first broadcast is set for June 13 when Chatham visits Bourne.
“Chase and Jake have immersed themselves in sports broadcasting from a young age.” CAA Media Consultant Dan D'Uva said. "Their extensive experience brings a professional polish, and we can hear the passion in their voices.
"With Chase and Jake as our play-by-play companions, Anglers fans will enjoy informative and entertaining broadcasts each night. Chase and Jake are bright, likable and two of the country's most talented student broadcasters. They're eager to continue our long tradition of broadcast excellence.
"We're particularly proud to see Jake continue to shine in this role, having been a Chatham fan since childhood and involved with the Anglers since 2020. We're also delighted that our booth will have two Massachusetts natives for the first time."
Fans can enjoy all of Abrams and Klein’s broadcasts at no cost through Chatham’s long-time service provider TRZ Teamline. All games, home and away, can be heard online and by a toll-free telephone number, 1-800-846-4700, code 3841. A multi-camera HD video stream accompanies home broadcasts on TRZ Teamline, YouTube, Twitter/X, Facebook and Cape League TV. Home games can be heard on 89.9 FM in Chatham.
The Anglers Extra Pregame Show begins 20 minutes before each game, featuring “The Manager’s Show” with Chatham skipper Dennis Cook and “Catch of the Day” with a player guest. The Anglers Extra Postgame Show follows each game, complete with highlights and interviews.
Interviews, highlights and additional broadcast content will be published on the Chatham Anglers’ digital media channels, including YouTube and SoundCloud. More information about Chatham broadcasts and the Cape Cod Baseball Network is available at Broadcast Central.
Abrams, from Ashland, Massachusetts, enters his first season as a Chatham broadcaster. Abrams is a sophomore in the Harrington School of Communications and Media at the University of Rhode Island, studying Sports Media and Communications. He serves as a Sports Director at URI’s student radio station, WRIU 90.3 FM, and broadcasts Rhode Island athletics events over the radio and on ESPN+.
Abrams began his play-by-play career when he was 12 years old and called over 200 games across nine different sports for Ashland High School on local cable access channel WACA-TV.
A lifelong Chatham summer resident originally from Southborough, Massachusetts, Klein enters his second summer as an Anglers play-by-play broadcaster. Klein is a junior studying Broadcast and Digital Journalism at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University. He served as the assistant sports director at WJPZ-FM and is a member of the sports staff at WAER-FM, both SU student radio stations. Klein is also an on-air talent at CitrusTV, the university’s student-run television station.
From 2020 to 2023, Klein served as Chatham’s media team assistant and producer. In 2024, he broadcasted collegiate summer baseball with the Worcester Bravehearts of the Futures Collegiate Baseball League, where he was named the league’s broadcaster of the year before returning to Chatham in 2025.
