Boston (June 27) – Several members of the Portsmouth, RI Little League Challenger team had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take the field with the Boston Red Sox Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park as part of Calling All Kids month, presented by Hood®, a celebration of Fenway Park’s youngest generation of fans during its 100^th anniversary season.

Throughout the month of June, Little Leaguers, RBI participants and baseball camp kids from across New England will be selected to take the field with the team prior to each home game.

“All of us with Hood care about children, as do our partners at the Red Sox,” said Lynne Bohan, Spokesperson from Hood®. “We are delighted to help children go to the ballgame, and to provide our popular Hoodsies as a summer treat.”

Calling All Kids month, presented by Hood® features a full month of activities for children attending games at Fenway Park including honoring children at each home game who have overcome adversity or made significant contributions to their communities as “Child-Hood Heroes” and providing lucky youngsters with the opportunity to help turn in game lineup cards.
