Babe Ruth Team Raising Funds for World Series Trip
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The Pittsfield Babe Ruth Baseball 15-year-old All-Stars have a number of fundraisers planned to support their trip to this month's World Series in Lawrenceburg, Tenn.
The first is a "dining to donate" event at Patrick's Pub in downtown Pittsfield on Wednesday, Aug. 5, from 4:30 to 10:30 p.m.
During that time, all dine-in or take-out customers who present a Pittsfield Babe Ruth coupon will have 20 percent of their bill donated to the team. The team cannot hand out coupons at the restaurants. Those interested in supporting the effort must print their coupon in advance;
