It's time to play ball at the Yosemite High School baseball complex.
The Yosemite High School Alumni baseball team will be hosting its second annual game on Saturday, Feb. 10.
The game will pit former Badger baseball players formed into two teams, one coached by present-day Yosemite coaches George McWherter and John McMillen.
The players must have been out of school for at least a year, some dating back to the 1991 season.
The featured player in the game will be Ted Lilly — Toronto Blue Jays pitcher and a 1994 Yosemite graduate.
http://www.sierrastar.com/ips_rich_content/687-kstar_p0208_lilly.jpgThe game starts at noon, with pre-game batting practice and infield practice beginning at 10:30 a.m. Professional players: Jay Spurgeon of the Baltimore Orioles; Corey Miller of the Oakland A's; Ryan Olsen from the New York Mets; Mikela Olsen of the Florida Marlins and Dayton Buller from the San Francisco Giants will play in the game.
Tickets for the game are a $10 donation. Tickets for the game and dinner will be $30.
All proceeds from the money raised will benefit the Yosemite High School Badger Baseball Program.
Last year's game drew more than 500 fans and raised $11,800.
