Perhaps one of the first things any young athlete learns is to keep their eye on the ball. From the second it leaves the pitcher's hand until it hits the bat, you must keep your eye on the ball. The Miami Marlins know how crucial eyesight is to baseball. That is why they have been partners with Miami Lighthouse for the Blind since 2013.
Thirty Miami Lighthouse students ages 13-20 on June 28 received a "touch tour" of the Marlins Park through a complex sensory experience. After the tour, the group stayed to watch the Marlins take on the Arizona Diamondbacks.
