Friday Lite

Thumb Tailgater Sports will be back with a webcast this coming Saturday, May 1st. We will cover the  Championship games of the Sanilac County Baseball & Softball Tournament at Deckerville High School. Check the blog also for live updates of the early semifinal games of the tournament.
However there has been a weather forecast of some early morning rainfall on Saturday. We will keep a close check in on the weather.  
Some Sunday rainy weather could also affect the upcoming live internet video webcast coverage of the Monday softball game on May 3rd, of the Peck Lady Pirates versus the Port Hope Lady Bluestars. 
But then again it is Michigan - weather could change in ten minutes from sunny skies, rain, snow and then to 80 degree weather all in one day!

Countdown Begins To First Baseball Video Webcast!

Thumb Tailgater Sports is finally pleased and excited to bring the first live webcast of high school baseball from Michigan's Thumb Area. This is a major "beta test", and it will feature a cross Greater Thumb Conference game between two new rivals.
The Vassar Vulcans at the Sandusky Redskins! Coverage starts at 3:45pm.
There may be some "rocky" spots and a little glitches here and there with the live webcast, but you got to start somewhere! The links to the game can be found on the Thumb Tailgater Sports website!
We must reiterate that you will need high speed internet access in order to watch the live webcast - dial up will be unfortunately a stone age lost cause.
