MLB squad, Houston Astros, secure partnership with PrizePicks for enhanced sports wagering services
PrizePicks, a daily fantasy sports operator, has announced a new partnership with the Houston Astros, marking another move to deepen its ties with baseball fans. This collaboration follows recent agreements with the Atlanta Braves, San Diego Padres, and San Francisco Giants.
The partnership with the Houston Astros will see PrizePicks-sponsored segments airing before each game on the team's radio network. Fans attending Monday home games will have the opportunity to participate in exclusive giveaways from PrizePicks, including a chance to win game tickets and cash prizes through uniform-themed activities.
The partnership aims to provide more fun and bigger rewards to PrizePicks players in Houston. Mike Quigley, Chief Marketing Officer at PrizePicks, expressed his excitement about the collaboration, stating, "We're thrilled to partner with the Houston Astros and provide an engaging experience for their fans."
Matt Richardson, Vice President of Corporate Partnerships at the Houston Astros, also expressed his enthusiasm about welcoming PrizePicks as an official partner. He said, "We're excited to partner with PrizePicks and offer our fans unique and exciting opportunities to engage with the team."
The new partnership will introduce new promotions and experiences to make following the Astros more exciting for fans, both at the ballpark and at home. PrizePicks branding will be visible at Daikin Park during Houston Astros home games.

However, the collaboration with KLUTCH Sports Group, a sports and entertainment marketing agency, may enhance future sports collaborations.
