It’s baseball season and time to Knock Tobacco
Out of the Park!

Let Major League Baseball know that the use of smokeless tobacco harms players and millions of kids who look up to them. Prohibiting smokeless tobacco use among players will not only help to reduce the use of tobacco use among youth, but also protect their players from oral cancers, and other harmful diseases. The Orioles and the Nationals have signed on—send a letter thanking them for their support in reducing tobacco use among youth! Take action now by visiting www.tobaccofreebaseball.org and let MLB know it’s time to get rid of smokeless tobacco use among players!
