Aquafina Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run (PHR) is a FREE, 1-day event for boys and girls ages 7-14* that is simple to host. Boys and girls compete separately and participants have the opportunity to compete in four levels of competition including Locals, Sectionals, Team Championships and the National Finals at the MLB All-Star Game. For more information, go to http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/kids/mlb_pitch_hit_run.jsp.
The Hopkins Area Jaycees will be holding the annual Pitch, Hit and Run competition Saturday, May 5 at Maetzold Field from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Registration will start at 11 and last until 2 p.m (with events running from approximately 11:30-3). The plan, to maximize participation, is to let kids participate as they arrive at Maetzold. Unfortunately, Field 3 is being renovated, so we will be using the soccer field for the hitting and running portions of the event. The Pitching portion will be on the practice mounds (bullpen) behind the left-centerfield fence on Field 2.
After registration, participants will be directed to the pitching, then be directed over to the North side of the soccer field for hitting then finish up with the timed run on the south side of the field.
