Baseball Assistance Team representatives Buck Martinez and Scott Roy joined MLB Network to discuss their stories and the organization. Roy talked about how B.A.T. helped him recover from the lowest point in his life and turn his life around after he'd dealt with addiction issues while Martinez expounded upon what B.A.T. offers to former players.

The Baseball Assistance Team has set a record for contributions during the 2022 Spring Training Fundraising Tour with nearly $3.6 million committed by more than 1,400 players, coaches and front office staff members among all 30 MLB Clubs.
