Summer time means hanging out on the beach, barbecues with friends and, of course, baseball!

We like to think Yahoo! Sports for TV is the ultimate game day companion. You can get up-to-date details on multiple games all over the country, track your fantasy sports league and more.

Here aer a few words from our Product Manager and resident sports guru, Roger:

“As an avid sports fan, I wanted to make sure we created an interactive sports application that gives fellow sports nuts an experience that’s informative and entertaining. The application offers quick and easy ways to get real-time game and fantasy data without compromising your viewing experience or making you take your hands off your favorite game day refreshment.

After all, nobody spend all of that money on a widescreen TV just to watch the game in a tiny window or behind all of the stats. With Yahoo! Sports for TV, game day viewing is now more enjoyable and interactive. Whether you’re a huge sports fan or fantasy baseball or football nut, I’m confident you will not be disappointed.”
