College-bound seniors... Watch baseball, earn ca$h! JrDP Scouts needed: Do you consider your baseball background and writing ability good enough to cover USSSA, Nations Baseball, Little League or Dixie Youth tournament games? If so, we could use your help to write up contests in the 9-14 age groups across South Carolina. We have openings across the state. The spring season is well underway and a lot of baseball will be played between now and the end of August. What better way to earn some extra spending money for college than watching America's pastime played by the stars of tomorrow. Anyone interested in being an area scout for the summer for Junior Diamond Prospects - and being compensated - should contact Richard Edwards at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. . We can put you to work as early as next weekend!
