LIMA, Ohio — Simmons Field came alive Wednesday morning as the Lima Locos hosted their annual youth baseball camp, giving young athletes a chance to sharpen their skills and learn from some of the area’s top collegiate talent.

Kids ranging in age from 7 to 13 took the field for a series of instructional drills focusing on core baseball fundamentals, including throwing, fielding, pitching, and more. The camp serves as both a learning experience for local players and a community engagement opportunity for the Locos.

For several team members, it was a full-circle moment — returning to the same field they once visited as campers, now standing in as mentors. The camp reinforced not only the importance of fundamentals but also the deeper connection between the team and the community it represents.
