“Look, we’re not getting a divorce!” Gladden told Provus on the phone.
But things will indeed be a little different in 2024 and beyond – while remaining focused on the familiar. The Twins are keeping things in-house for their play-by-play future, tapping two longtime members of the organization to serve as the voice of the team from their television and radio booths.
The club announced Friday that Provus would move to direct television play-by-play duties after 12 years as the radio voice of the Twins, and that longtime radio studio host Kris Atteberry would return to the job main play-by-play on the radio on the Treasury. Island Baseball Network as he enters his 18th season with the organization.
“It’s something I really want to do,” Provus said. “I have always considered myself to be ambitious and challenging, and that, for me, is by far the ultimate challenge. And the idea of joining this group in this way, now I think I would regret not at least trying.
“I’m just thrilled,” Atteberry said. “I am delighted. Many people, obviously, to whom I owe great gratitude. First of all, I’m truly privileged and honored to work for an organization that cares about radio and cares deeply about radio, from our owners to our team president and all the way down.
The Twins have yet to announce their television broadcast home for the 2024 season and beyond following the expiration of their deal with Diamond Sports Group – the parent company of Bally Sports North – at the end of the ’23 campaign.
But this has already been a transitional offseason, with those personnel moves resulting from longtime TV play-by-playman Dick Bremer. transition to a front office ambassador role after 40 years as the television voice of the Twins.
“Cory and Kris have been an integral part of the soundtrack of spring, summer and fall in Twins territory for many years and we are excited to continue that relationship as they transition into their new roles.” , Twins president Dave St. Peter said in a statement. . “The connections they form within our organization translate into a storytelling capacity that is unique to them; I am extremely confident that both will continue the Twins’ legacy of broadcast excellence.
Provus said it was not an easy decision to give up radio, which has been his primary medium throughout his successful broadcasting career, covering tenures in MLB with the Cubs, Brewers and Twins. He also did televised play-by-play for football and basketball on the Big Ten Network, and he will continue to do so for basketball alongside his new role with the Twins.
He joined the Minnesota booth in 2012 and said a big part of his motivation for moving to television was to help expand broadcasting to more of Twins territory and make it more accessible, including the planned lifting of ban restrictions in 2024.
“That, for me, was a game-changer,” Provus said. “Alright, if I do that the power outages will go away. Twins baseball is going to be more accessible. For me, it was very, very exciting and it kind of pushed me in that direction, that this would be an opportune time to go down that path and try it. So that was a big part of it.
Atteberry dedicated his time, having served 17 seasons as host of the pre-game and post-game card show on the Treasure Island Baseball Network, while filling in play-by-play or color for Atteberry and Gladden when needed. He noted that he had thought about giving up on his hope “a million times” over the years, but finally realized the dream he had since he was 6 years old growing up in Montana.
Since beginning his career as a student broadcaster at Stanford University, Atteberry has worked his way up through South Dakota, Wyoming and with the St. Paul Saints – long before they became the organization’s Triple-A affiliate – before landing with the Twins in 2007.
“I had been close but not to the guy too many times,” Atteberry said. “Working for people you love and with people you love, you don’t find that everywhere. I have too many friends in the industry who still can’t find it. I’m not going to give it up. »
The Twins plan to announce their full television and radio broadcast schedules – as well as information about their television broadcast partnership – later this offseason, but the core of their broadcast work will rely on two familiar faces, and it’s something the whole group remains excited about. as they forge their new future together.
“I’m really excited about the idea that, for the most part, the band is still together,” Atteberry said. “Cory stands on his little box and takes his shots with Justin (Morneau), but we are always together. We travel together. We have a very good relationship, rhythm and energy between all of us.
