ANAHEIM -- Two hundred and fifty boys and girls, ranging from 8-18 years old, took the field at Angel Stadium on Saturday morning as part of the 2018 National PLAY Campaign, an initiative meant to promote the importance of children living a healthy and active lifestyle.
The participants rotated between stations to practice a wide range of baseball skills -- including hitting, catching and pitching -- and received tips from Angels right-handers Justin Anderson and Alex Meyer, as well as infielder David Fletcher. Catching and information coach Steve Soliz, strength and conditioning coach Lee Fiocchi and team trainers Adam Nevala and Eric Munson were also among the Angels personnel on hand for the event.
