Baseball Madness!



Every summer, the Arizona Republic newspaper and the Arizona Diamondbacks baseball team sponsor Read Your Way to the Ballpark. Libraries hand out special posters for kids to keep track of how much they've read. They get little prizes at the library, and the grand prize at the end is a voucher for a Diamondbacks ticket. Those who get the D-backs ticket can also enter a drawing to attend a baseball clinic with the D-backs at Chase Field. This year, ds was chosen, and went on Saturday.





He had a good time. The kids got to take home goodie bags, including a cool D-backs baseball cap. And they got autographs from the pitcher, Dustin Nippert.
