When an engineer hears blind children refuse to play ball at school, he must invent a ball you can hear, or they’ll miss out on fun & playful learning experiences. Not to mention baseball! This ball goes from playground to baseball diamond - starring in its own World Series #DVpit #PB #NF #STEM #DIS

21 Days of #PitchDis starts tomorrow!
A few notes:
-Since I can't schedule posts on Bluesky, the prompts probably won't appear at the exact same time every day.
-Make sure to use the #PitchDis hashtag when answering the prompts so others may find you, and make sure to search the tag to find others!
