The clinic was a huge success, and there’s already talk about making it a yearly event. With Wichita having a Minor League team and being just three hours away from Kansas City, there’s “natural synergy” for a partnership, Royals director of professional and sport development Jeff Diskin said.
“League 42 is a very grassroots-level program, and everybody gets a chance to play,” Diskin said.
