MLB Pitch Hit & Run 2017 In Yorktown Changes Date

YORKTOWN, NY — The MLB Pitch Hit & Run 2017 originally scheduled for Sunday April 2 has been delayed until Saturday April 8.

The competition now takes place Saturday April 8, 2017, on Route 202 fields between 9am and 1pm.

Organizers said if you are unable to attend your time slot you may compete at a different time. It averages two minutes to complete all three skills.

This grassroots program is designed to provide youngsters with an opportunity to compete, free of charge, in a competition that recognizes individual excellence in core baseball/softball skills.

Boys and girls are divided into four age divisions: 7/8, 9/10, 11/12, 13/14, and have the chance to advance through four levels of competition, including Team Championships at Major League ballparks and the National Finals during the 2017 MLB All-Star Week.

The individual Pitching, Hitting and Running Champions, along with the All-Around Champion in each division age group at the Local Competition will be awarded and advance to the Sectional Level of Competition.
