This evening Herts Baseball Club created history with the first ever Live Radio broadcast in British Baseball. Jason Greenberg hosted a 4-hour show packed with exclusive interviews, music and of course the Kyle Hunlock Series Live Draft. Listeners followed every round of the draft on the online Draft Tracker brilliantly created by Greg “the Motion” Bochan. Those who tuned in to the Radio show were also able to interact in the Chat Zone where over 700 chat messages were exchanged over the course of the evening.
