BALTIMORE —

Baltimore Orioles Hall of Famer Adam Jones showed his support Saturday for a nonprofit designed to make baseball more accessible to youths who are ready to play.

The Baltimore Urban Baseball Association hosted a fundraising event called Field of Futures. The association offers scholarships and after-school programs for undeserved youths in the Baltimore area, providing them training, equipment and mentorship at no cost.

"The community is invested in their growth and wants them to excel both athletically and off the field, and we're just here to provide an opportunity for both access, mentorship and a safe place for aspiring athletes," said Tosha Hughes, with BUBA.

BUBA has connected hundreds of Baltimore-area youths to enjoy America's pastime for free.
