Josh Pahigian's ESPN Sports Travel column looks at giveaway promotions in the minors

Josh Pahigian, baseball writer and adjunct faculty member in the UNE Department of English and Language Studies, on May 5, 2010 published the second of a two-part series on ESPN Sports Travel highlighting the best promotions in the bush leagues. The latest column looks at ballpark giveaways, which are much more generous in the minor leagues than the majors. Pahigian is the author of seven baseball books, including the recently released The Seventh Inning Stretch and 101 Baseball Places to See Before You Strike Out.
