'It just strengthens you' - It’s America’s pastime and in Ogden, baseball is bringing the community together this weekend to raise money and more importantly, awareness to children with disabilities.
On Saturday at 10 a.m. kids and families will take over Monroe Park for an afternoon of fun and baseball.
Barragan and his wife, Brooke Barragan, came up with the idea for an inclusive sporting event. It was inspired by their daughter, who has a disability. "You don't have to like do well, this is us getting to know each other and giving opportunities to kids that wouldn't typically have that opportunity," Brooke remarked.
Proceeds from the ballgame go to the Utah Parent Center, which connects resources with families who have children with disabilities.
