Pitch, Hit, and Run is the official skills competition of Major League baseball. This grassroots program is designed to provide youngsters with an opportunity to compete, free of charge, in a competition that recognizes individual excellence in core baseball and softball skills.
Boys and girls are divided into four age divisions; 7/8, 9/10, 11/12, 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 2014 MLB All Star Game.
The individual pitching, hitting, and running champion, along with the all-around champion in each age and gender 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 have their parent or guardian fill out a registration/waiver form prior to the start of the competition. For questions regarding the competition, please contact your local coordinator, Bob Lang at 203 888‑6268 or .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
