Rochester, MN – The Northwoods League is pleased to announce it is launching a YouTube channel this summer that will provide fans with more than 560 NWL games streamed live during the 2013 regular and post season on the Northwoods League YouTube channel and through a YouTube video player on nwltickets.com. The partnership was announced by Dick Radatz, Jr., Northwoods League President.
“This partnership allows us to continue as the leader of live streaming baseball games at this level of baseball,” said Radatz. “We are extremely excited about the exposure this alliance will give the Northwoods League.”
The Northwoods League season on YouTube will lead off with opening night on Wednesday, May 29th, with all 16 teams in action.
