Fans of the 2024 Little League World Series will have the opportunity to witness a historic event on Sunday with a special MLB pitch, hit and run team championship being held for the first time on Volunteer Stadium at 9 a.m.

Major League Baseball pitch, hit and run is a free event that provides boys and girls an opportunity to showcase their baseball and softball skills, while earning a chance to attend and perform during the MLB World Series. Athletes are tested, and their measurements are recorded.

Based on their scores, they advance from a local event to a team championship held in MLB stadiums. Top scores then qualify for an all-expenses-paid trip for two to compete at the finals, which is hosted at the MLB World Series.

Fans are highly encouraged to come to the Little League International Complex to support the participants, with no cost to attend and seats available on a first-come, first-served basis. Gates to the complex will open at 7 a.m.

The event will welcome baseball and softball players (ages 11-12) to Volunteer Stadium, including Little Leaguers from 14 different leagues.
