Welcome to Inside Baseball, an educational behind-the-scenes look at the game of baseball, brought to you by ARAMARK, the company that helps your school provide breakfast and lunch programs, and the Major League Baseball Players Association!

• Have you ever wondered what goes on “behind-the-scenes” during a baseball game?
• Do you want to learn more about your favorite baseball players?
• Do you want to learn more about Minute Maid Park and how it runs?

Well, you're in the right place!

Inside Baseball is a fun program that uses this Web site to teach you more about your home team, the Houston Astros . You'll learn how your favorite players help their communities through volunteering, how team statisticians keep track of a player's performance and how to run a first-class ballpark!

When you've completed your projects, your parents will have the chance to bring you and your family to a baseball game at Minute Maid Park where you'll see all the people you learned about in action!

Let's get started. Be sure to hit a home run!
