LOCK HAVEN -- UPMC Williamsport welcomed this year's newest lineup of heavy hitters born during the Little League Baseball World Series at The Birthplace, a UPMC Magee facility, with special guests Dugout, Little League International's official mascot, and Will M. Sport, UPMC in North Central Pa.'s mascot.

"This is such a fun time that our whole staff looks forward to," said Katelyn Fowler, Unit Director, The Birthplace at UPMC Magee-Womens in Williamsport. "It's unique in the sense that our small town gets put on an international stage. We have the opportunity to share how special Williamsport is with these families and this celebration helps make welcoming their newest additions even more memorable."

Families with babies born during the series received a special UPMC Magee-Womens onesie, a UPMC pin for mom and dad, a hand-knitted baseball cap created by UPMC employees, and a baseball or softball donated by Little League International sporting their babies' footprints.
