CAMBRIDGE - The Intercounty Baseball League (IBL) announced on Monday that Jackson Farough will be the new host of IBL On Deck, relaunching on January 27.

Farough (London, Ont.) will be taking over the reins from Spencer Tanguay (Welland, Ont.), Dylan Baker (London, Ont.), Ryan Eakin (Barrie, Ont.), and Noah Smith (London, Ont.), to sit down with IBL players, staff, alumni and more to explore their unique lives and untold stories of their careers.

Farough, a rising star in broadcasting, got his first taste of IBL baseball when he joined the RogersTV broadcast team as a sideline reporter during last summer's Legacy Classic between the London Majors and Guelph Royals.

“I’m super excited to be hosting IBL On Deck and really look forward to bringing some great stories and interviews to IBL fans of all ages as we look to the incredible history of the league as well as the future, including the 2021 season,” said Farough.

The IBL On Deck is a biweekly show available on YouTube, showcasing interviews with current and former IBL players, staff and more.
