Pitch, Hit & Run Contest
Local youth can showcase their baseball skills of throwing, hitting and base-running as the Presque Isle Recreation & Parks is again holding a Pitch, Hit and Run Contest. The competition is free and open to all Presque Isle area boys and girls between the ages of 7 and 14. It will take place Sunday, May 20 at the Pine Street diamond in Presque Isle. Registration begins at 5:30 p.m., with the competition starting at 6 p.m.
Local winners will advance to the sectionals at the University of Maine at Orono in June. Top performers at the sectionals will be eligible to advance to the team championships in Boston and winners from there move on to the nationals during the Major League Baseball All-Star weekend in Pittsburgh.
