The Miracle League of Greater New Orleans gives kids with disabilities a chance to play baseball, to put on uniforms and to run — or be pushed — around the bases rather than just sitting on the sidelines and watching. It gives them a chance to be part of a team and of an organized league. It gives them a chance to enjoy a favorite American game.
“The main thing is, they have fun,” says Gina Lorio, executive director of the nonprofit group.
