In just two months, MLB will host “MLB at Rickwood Field, A Tribute to the Negro Leagues” – the first official Major League Baseball game in Birmingham, Alabama, at the historic Rickwood Field featuring the San Francisco Giants and St. Louis Cardinals. Leading up to the game, representatives from MLB, the San Francisco Giants, and the St. Louis Cardinals traveled throughout the state of Alabama, visiting three HBCU campuses (Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical University, Alabama State University, and Miles College) to meet with leadership and students. They shared insights from their own career journeys and highlighted the various paths to pursuing a career in baseball. Following June 20th, MLB and both Clubs are committed to continuing the dialogue with students. Through a series of virtual workshops, we will focus on topics such as elevating LinkedIn profiles, tailoring resumes, and exploring future opportunities, all through the lens of Sports. We want to thank our sponsor Mastercard for leading a workshop on how students can manage their finances successfully and catering lunch from local small businesses Mac & Snacks (Huntsville, AL), The Veggie (Huntsville, AL), Jernigan & Jernigan (Montgomery, AL), Plant Bae (Montgomery, AL), and Jolly Cakes (Birmingham, AL) for students. Lastly, a heartfelt thank you to Dr. Daniel K. Wims, Quinton T Ross Jr, Bobbie Knight for hosting us on your beautiful campuses, as well as a special shoutout to students from Talladega College, Lawson State Community College, and Stillman College for making the trip to join us!
