About Play Ball! Mr. Baseball

 The Play Ball! Mr. Baseball Award began honoring the best High School Senior baseball athlete in 2010 through a direct partnership with the Minnesota Twins and Minute Men. Seven finalists are nominated and ranked each year by a select list of college coaches and pro scouts. The Mr. Baseball is announced at an annual banquet honoring all the finalists over dinner and guest speeches from Jack Morris, Terry Ryan,  Ron Coomer and more. 

In 2012 the Minnesota Twins Community Fund announced a full sponsorship of the Mr. Baseball Award- thus taking on the Play Ball! Mr. Baseball Award. 

A silent auction takes place during the banquet with proceeds going to underprivileged youth athletes.
