Trammell, Parrish to host baseball camp Dec. 13

DETROIT -- While Alan Trammell and Lance Parrish have come back to the Tigers' organization over the past 12 months, their ties to the city have been maintained for a while through their work at Wayne State University in midtown Detroit. The two will host their fifth annual baseball camp there Saturday, Dec. 13.

The camps, which help benefit Wayne State's baseball program, will be held inside the Matthaei Center and the university's multipurpose indoor facility. A fundamentals camp will be held in the morning for kids in grades 2-7, followed by an advanced development camp for those in grades 8-12.

The fundamentals camp, which runs from 9:30 a.m. to noon ET, will focus on baseball concepts and college and pro-level drills involving the all-around game, including infield, outfield, pitching, catching, hitting and baserunning. The advanced development session runs from 1:30-4 p.m. and will focus on skill development tools on defense and hitting, baserunning, speed and agility work.

Each camp costs $100. Registration is available at waynestatebaseballcamps.com, or in person at the university. Deadline to register is Dec. 5.
