Bristol State Liners News Release
Bristol Baseball, Inc. and the Bristol Pirates professional baseball team are pleased to announce that, for the second consecutive year, shortstop Trae Arbet will represent the Bristol Pirates this Wednesday in Pittsburgh, as the Pittsburgh Pirates celebrate their Community Commitment Program with representatives from all their minor league affiliates.
The celebration will take place prior to the game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Chicago Cubs, on Roberto Clemente Day at PNC Park. The Pirates Community Commitment Program is an organization-wide community service program for Pirates minor league players that promotes community service and awareness.
While in Bristol, Arbet volunteered more than 16 hours, in addition to his community service earlier in the year during extended spring training. He was selected to represent the Bristol Pirates for his service to the community, the quality of his character on and off the field, his enthusiasm for community service, and his community involvement leadership among his teammates.
Arbet and his Bristol teammates completed more than 282 volunteer hours with local community groups during the 2015 season, from mid-June through August.
