Minor League Baseball umpires not only called balls and strikes during Spring Training, they rolled for strikes, too.

That’s because the MiLB umpires take one night every spring to go bowling to support UMPS CARE Charities and our programs.

Umpires and their crew members bowled in Arizona and at two locations in Florida to support UMPS CARE!

Proceeds from the 2024 AMLU & UMPS CARE Spring Training charity bowling tournaments support visits to children’s hospitals complete with Build-A-Bear furry friends for kids, VIP ballpark visits with umpire meet and greets, college scholarships for children adopted later in life and training for teens to become umpires and leaders in the community!

In addition to teaming up with all 30 Triple-A teams this year and we already have confirmation from six Class AA teams to expand our program even further this season!

Huge thanks to everyone who joined us at the bowling alleys and to their crews for raising funds for these programs!
