Ryan Howard Hitting Clinic at Penn

Everyone’s favorite first baseman is teaming up with everyone’s favorite baseball card company for a clinic next month. Topps announced last week that Ryan Howard – who graces the front of so many glossy packs – will be hosting the Topps Ryan Howard Baseball Clinic on Saturday, November 10th at the Hollenbeck Indoor Annex facility at the University of Pennsylvania.

The Topps Ryan Howard Baseball Clinic will be a one-day instructional seminar on the fundamentals of baseball and will showcase Howard’s MVP insight and career experiences. In addition, the baseball clinic will staff coaches of all levels from the Philadelphia local area.

“I hope to teach these kids the meaning of teamwork and the fundamentals of a good swing,” the slugger said.  Let’s just hope he doesn’t pass along the recipe for a 199-strikeout season.
