Notes

1. Ken Singleton left the Expos in May 1996 to join the MLB on Fox. He was replaced by Mike Stenhouse. Marc Griffin filled-in on radio broadcasts when Stenhouse was calling games on television.

2. From 1971 to 1976, 1987, 1989 to 1990, and 1997 to 1999, the Expos had a secondary announcer for games Dave Van Horne called on television. From 1977 to 1986, 1988, and 1991 to 1996, the Expos had a secondary broadcast team for games when both radio announcers were on television.

3. During the 2003 and 2004 seasons, Elliott Price called called home games in Montreal alongside Mitch Melnick. For road games, various former players and minor league announcers, including Tim Wallach, Bill Lee, Russ Langer, Brett Dolan, Rob Evans, Warren Cromartie, Mike Curto, Jim Tocco, and Rich Burk, called games with Price on a volunteer basis.^{[96] [97] [98]} Roberto Clemente Jr. called home games in Puerto Rico alongside Price in 2003, but the club used volunteer announcers for these games during the 2004 season.^[99]
