🇺🇸⚾ ROAD TO ITALY: MEET PASQUALE AGNONE

Today, we are introducing you to Pasquale Agnone.
We asked Pasquale:
“What has being part of competitive Blind Baseball taught you about yourself that you might not have learned anywhere else?”
His story is a reminder that Blind Baseball is about much more than what happens between the lines.
It's about confidence.
It's about teamwork.
It's about pushing yourself.
And it's about discovering what you can accomplish when you have the opportunity to compete.
Take a moment to watch Pasquale's story.
Then share it with someone who should know about Blind Baseball.
Our Road to Italy has begun, but the larger mission continues when we return home: creating more opportunities for blind and visually impaired athletes to play, compete and succeed.

🇺🇸⚾ THE USBBA ROAD TO ITALY BEGINS TODAY!

In just a few weeks, our 2026 USA Blind Baseball Team Delegation will travel to Tuscany, Italy, to compete in the 2026 WBSC Blind Baseball International Cup.
But before we go, we want you to meet the people behind this journey.
Starting tomorrow, you'll begin hearing directly from our athletes and coaches as they share their personal Blind Baseball stories.
You'll hear about how they discovered the sport, what it has meant to them, what they get from being part of a competitive team, and what it means to represent the United States internationally.
Most importantly, you'll hear why they believe in the future of Blind Baseball.
Because this journey is about much more than Italy.
It's about creating opportunities for blind and visually impaired athletes here at home.
Follow us every day from September 8 through September 27 as we share the USBBA Road to Italy.
