BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - The Birmingham Barons announced today that their parent club, the Chicago White Sox, and scout Warren Hughes will hold a tryout camp at Hoover Metropolitan Stadium on Monday, July 3rd.
The camp is open for players ages 15-23. It begins at 9:00 a.m. and registration starts at 8:15 a.m. The length of the camp will depend on the number of players participating, but players should allow for a minimum of four hours.
Participants need to bring their own equipment, including glove, shoes, catcher's gear, and bat (although bats will be available to participants that do not have one). Players will be timed in the 60-yard dash and be evaluated in hitting, fielding and pitching.
