The Baseball Youth Road Trip travelled to St. Petersburg, Florida for the Dizzy Dean St. Petersburg Tournament. The crew members enjoyed the trip from Miramar to St. Petersburg and were excited to bring the road trip there. Although it had been raining for a few days, luckily the bad weather held off on Saturday for the tournament.
The "Player of the Year" booth was swamped with parents eager to put in their nominations. The players were excited about the possiblility of getting presented with a trophy on the Major League Baseball Network. The MLBPA booth was also packed with little leaguers excited about spinning the wheel to win Upper Deck and Tops baseball cards, Lousiville Slugger posters, and Major League Baseball Pencils, among many other prizes.
The players were interested in finding their favorite team's baseball hat at the New Era booth, the kids had fun trying many of the hats on. There were also tons of questions about where to find the hats in stores!
Our next stop is close by in Clearwater, Florida. Our crew members look forward to getting to know the area more and meeting more parents and players that love baseball!
