Pitch, Hit & Run is the official skills
competition of Major League Baseball. This grass-roots program is
designed to provide youngsters with an opportunity to participate
free of charge in a competition that recognizes individual
excellence in core baseball skills.Competitors are divided into
four age divisions -- 7-8, 9-10, 11-12 and 13-14 -- and have the
chance to advance through four levels of competition, including team
championships at Major League ballparks and the national finals at
the 2008 MLB All-Star Game.
The individual pitching, hitting and running champions, along
with the all-around champion in each age group at the local
competition, will be awarded and advance to the sectional level of
competition.
All participants must bring a copy of their birth certificate and
fill out a registration-waiver form prior to the start of the
competition.

local coordinator, John Krueger, at 947-2038.
