KRIS6 and the Corpus Christi Hooks have joined forces, launching a baseball and softball equipment drive. Community members are encouraged to donate new or gently used baseball/softball equipment to the Whataburger Field front office. All donations are eligible to receive tickets to a Corpus Christi Hooks game and will be entered for a chance to win four tickets to a Houston Astros game. Donations can be dropped off during normal business hours or home games.

The Corpus Christi Hooks kicked off the equipment drive with a donation to the Moody High School baseball team. Two sets of catcher's gear were donated including catchers helmets, masks, chest protectors, knee guards and cleats. To watch the whole news story, click here.
