Pepsi Major League Baseball PITCH, HIT & RUN provides youngsters across the country the opportunity to participate in an exciting baseball skills competition. PITCH, HIT & RUN is a free national program that gives boys and girls ages 7 to 14 the chance to showcase their baseball abilities.
PITCH, HIT & RUN is intended to encourage youth participation and emphasize the fun element of baseball. There is no registration fee. Boys and girls compete together in four different age groups: 7-8, 9-10, 11-12 and 13-14. Age is determined as of July 17, 2005. Locally the competition is being held by The Forest Hills Little League.
PITCH, HIT & RUN is designed to test three of the most fundamental aspects of baseball: pitching, hitting & running.
PITCH - The participant is tested throwing strikes to a designated "Strike Zone" target.
HIT - Allows the youngster to hit a ball off a stationary tee for distance and accuracy.
RUN - The youngster is timed, starting from second base, touching third and then home.
Skill events are individually scored and converted to a total point score through the use of conversion tables. Each participant will compete in each of the three components of PITCH, HIT & RUN and accumulate a total score based on his or her performance. There are four levels of competition that exist for PITCH, HIT & RUN: Locals, Sectionals, Team Championships and the National Finals to be held during the 2005 Major League Baseball All Star game.
