Pitch Hit & Run

MRPA is the Maine state sponsor for the Aquafina/Major League Baseball Pitch, Hit & Run competition

(To download this overview information as a pdf, click here)

Your Maine community can host a FREE program for youngsters ages 7 – 14. Aquafina Pitch, Hit & Run is a 1-day event in April or early May that is designed to encourage youth participation in baseball/softball & allow youngsters to showcase their pitching, hitting and running abilities. Local winners can move on to the Maine Sectional Competitions with the chance to advance to the Boston Red Sox Team Championship event at Fenway Park in late June. The top contestants nationwide compete at the National Finals during MLB All-Star Week.

2012 Maine Pitch, Hit & Run Program Deadlines:

Wednesday, May 16: All local competitions must be completed and results submitted online at www.mlb.com/phradmin. YOUR LOCAL COMPETITION MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE THE SECTIONAL.

Sunday, May 20: Tentative date for both the Northern & Southern Maine Sectional Competitions. Times and locations to be announced at a later date.

Late June: Team Championship held at Fenway Park. Maine “All-Around Champions” in the Sectional Competitions will be directly notified by PHR Headquarters as to their advancement status following the Sectionals. They will provide the specific date and time of the Team Championship if that participant’s score is eligible to advance. Please register for your local Pitch, Hit & Run Program & Free Administrative Kit online at www.mlb.com/phr.

Pitch, Hit and Run is a Win - Win for your community!

*It costs your towns nothing. All materials are provided by Major League Baseball and shipped to you well in advance of your competition.

*It’s an excellent opportunity for groups to fundraise by selling concessions at the event.

*It's a great way to get kids involved in baseball and a good opportunity to build camaraderie in your community.
