From the Detroit Tigers:
The Detroit Tigers have teamed with the Philadelphia Phillies to vote for both Tigers third baseman Brandon Inge and Phillies outfielder Shane Victorino in the 2009 All-Star Game Sprint Final Vote.
The Detroit Tigers and Philadelphia Phillies organizations, two of baseball’s most storied franchises, are encouraging businesses located throughout Michigan and Pennsylvania to allow their employees time today and tomorrow to vote for Inge and Victorino.
Tigers fans who vote for Inge at least 100 times on www.tigers.com in the 2009 All-Star Game Sprint Final Vote are now eligible to win a “Deliver the Game Ball to the Mound” fantasy package.
The once-in-a-lifetime opportunity allows a fan to deliver the game ball to the pitcher’s mound prior to the first pitch and two infield box seats and parking for the Tigers game on Tuesday, August 4. Additionally, the winner will receive a Tigers batting practice jersey, dinner for two in the Champions Club, a picture taken at the pitcher’s mound during game ball delivery and a scoreboard announcement of the winner’s name as they deliver the game ball.
Vote for Inge and Victorino online at www.tigers.com/vote or www.phillies.com. Fans have until 4 p.m. (EDT) on Thursday, July 9 to vote. The winners, as chosen exclusively by online fan voting totals will be announced on MLB.com shortly thereafter.
Mobile voting is available exclusively on Sprint capable mobile phones and fans can send the word “Vote” to 1122 to receive the 2009 All-Star Game Sprint Final Vote ballot. Standard text rates apply. In Canada, fans should text the word “Vote” to 88555.
