For the 8th season, HCAM in Hopkinton and WACA TV in Ashland will air broadcasts of Ashland Legion Baseball Post 77 home games and a few road games! HCAT TV in Holliston will also air the games this season. All home games will be played at Ashland Middle School.
The announcing crew consists of, HCAM's Tom Nappi who will provide play by play and color commentary during the games. Larry Saklad will provide play by play and analysis during the broadcasts and Steve Watson. Steve currently works as an Umpire and as a high school sports commentator and Milford High School as their Football Public Address Announcer. Steve previously worked with the Milford Legion Baseball program as a PA Announcer. Steve will assist in announcing and provide rules analysis during the Broadcasts. Connor Donovan of WACA-TV in Ashland will also assist in announcing and camera. Connor has worked with us during the Ashland Legion Broadcasts all 8 seasons and is an essential asset to the team. Connor also had the call on the MILB title game in which Ashland captured the championship game in independent league play.
WACA and HCAT will provide camera and production personal.
Also new this year, all games (unless there is a programming conflict) will air live on either HCAM or WACA youtube page.

Last year, Legion Baseball was cancelled due to the pandemic but independent leagues were formed and Ashland Post 77 which went by the Ashland 7's in independent league play captured the Massachusetts Independent Baseball League title versus a very talented pool of teams! This year, they have high expectations in zone 5 play and hope to capture some more titles in Legion play!
