QuackerJack coaches third base for Challenger Division

(Old Bethpage, N.Y., April 7, 2013) – On Sunday, QuackerJack and the Ducks Street Team, powered by National Grid, traveled to Haypath Field in Old Bethpage to visit the Plainview Little League Challenger Division.

The Plainview Little League Challenger Division is subsidized by the Plainview Little League. There is no charge to the players, and each child bats in every inning. Balls, strikes and outs are not tracked and everyone gets a hit and gets to run the bases. QuackerJack was the third base coach and waved each player home as they ran the bases.

QuackerJack and the Ducks Street Team, powered by National Grid, will be in attendance at the upcoming events listed below throughout the month of April. Be sure to stop by, congratulate the Ducks on winning the 2012 Atlantic League Championship and get excited for the 2013 season!
