About baseball in benin
Baseball in Benin is an organization that was formed in 2010 after Gary Tonsager visited Benin on a Onesight mission giving eye exams and glasses to people in need. The organization strives to organize and promote baseball in the nation of Benin, West Africa.
Baseball in Benin is based out of Minnesota and is currently focused on training coaches, setting up leagues, shipping baseball equipment and securing fields to play on. With the help of the organization in Minnesota and people on the ground in Benin the game of baseball is expanding in the small west African nation.
