Social Media Baseball Campaigns

MLB's Twitter Campaign is Engraving Baseballs with Fan Tweets

MLB's Twitter campaign is engraving tweets on the baseballs used for bating practice. Attending live sporting events has been put on hold, but athletes are still looking to connect with their fans in other ways. Major League Baseball is doing so through social media, with this unique campaign that asks fans to tweet using the hashtag #FreeBaseball.

A handful of fan tweets will be selected and engraved on baseballs, which will then be used at batting practice by the Tampa Bay Rays and the Los Angeles Dodgers. After practices, those with the winning tweets will be sent the ball that features their message. What's more, is that some of these balls will be autographed by top players.
