WCTV's newest show provides inside access to summer baseball

Jul 17, 2012

Have you ever wondered what the Wareham Gatemen players do when they are not at the ball field?

Dive into the Gatemen organization with WCTV’s newest sports show “Wareham Gatemen – Around the Horn” covering everything about your favorite Cape Cod Baseball League team.

The series is new every Tuesday at 4 p.m. (during the Gatemen season) on Comcast Channel 9, Verizon Channel 30, and WCTV’s live web stream.

Weekly highlights, coach interviews, player profiles, and many features can be seen each week including a recent trip to Axis Bats to watch Gatemen baseball bats being made.

“Our goal is to show Wareham just how fortunate we are to be one of only ten towns in the league to host a team,” says show producer Derek Drinkwater, “and to be able to show the personalities of each player is just a bonus to everything else we have to offer."

If you haven’t had a chance to tune in, episodes 1-6 will be replayed this Sunday, July 22, at 3:30 p.m. on WCTV’s Education Channel, Comcast 97 / Verizon 28. After the recap, WCTV will broadcast live the Gatemen taking on the Brewster Whitecaps at home.
