It's no easy task to keep up with how many times Minor League Baseball and its 160 teams have found themselves in the record books, but we do know that MiLB always knows how to keep things interesting as it's breaking new ground.
From the longest professional baseball game ever played to the most wristbands worn in one place to a record-setting attempt involving silly string, there's always room for Minor League Baseball in the headlines.
On Tuesday, July 10, New York Yankees legend Bernie Williams led a group of Minor League Baseball (MiLB) fans at the Eastern League All-Star Game in a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™-breaking attempt using one of baseball's most recognized confections, bubble gum.
Bernie Williams, Trenton Mascot Boomer encourage fans to blow their best bubble gum bubble.
Along with partners Boehringer Ingelheim, the stunt brought awareness to the rare lung disease idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
