Blue Wahoos Stadium will host a Pitch, Hit and Run competition on Saturday, June 11 as the Blue Wahoos join Major and Minor League Baseball in celebrating PLAY BALL Weekend. Pensacola’s Pitch, Hit and Run competition will be held from 9:00 AM-12:30 PM and is free to participate in for children ages 14 and under.
Participating youth athletes will have the chance to participate in a 90-foot sprint, a pitching challenge, and a hitting challenge. Both baseball and softball players are eligible to compete. Winning athletes will be declared in both baseball and softball based on age groups (under 7, 7-8, 9-10, 11-12, 13-14), and top competitors will have the opportunity to compete in a regional Pitch, Hit and Run competition at a later date.
Athletes should bring their glove and bat to the competition. Rubber cleats or tennis shoes are permissible on the field at Blue Wahoos Stadium.
The first 200 youth athletes to register will also receive a free bat and ball set courtesy of Franklin. In addition, all registrants will receive a free subscription to MLB.TV and MiLB.TV, allowing them to stream Major and Minor League Baseball games throughout the season.
All athletes must be registered in advance to compete. Registration is free and can be completed through PensacolaBlueWahoos.LeagueApps.com.
PLAY BALL Weekend is a nationwide initiative through Major and Minor League Baseball to engage young fans and share the fun of playing baseball and softball. PLAY BALL events will be held in all 50 states on June 10-12, 2022 including every Major and Minor League market.
