DAYTON, Ohio – The Dayton Dragons and Kroger are once again partnering to bring the Baseball Buddies program back to Day Air Ballpark in 2024.

Children ages 7–13 can enter for the chance to be a Dragons Baseball Buddy, presented by Kroger. Each winner receives early entry to the ballpark on their game day, a replica Dragons jersey, hat, autographed baseball, photo opportunities, and more! Buddies will also be a part of the Dragons starting lineup on their game day.

One lucky Dragons Baseball Buddy grand prize winner will be randomly selected to have their own night at the park alongside family and friends. The winner’s day at the park includes a picnic at the field, games with the Dragons Green Team and mascots, running the bases, photos, complimentary food and beverage, plus a shopping spree in the Dragons Den Team Store.

To enter, visit your local Kroger and ask for a sign-up form, or visit www.daytondragons.com/buddies.
