Baseball Assistance Team

The Baseball Assistance Team is a 501(c)(3) non-profit affiliated with Major League Baseball. The organization's stated goal is to "help members of the ''baseball family'' who have come on hard times and are in need of assistance," and is guided by the principles of teamwork, caring, and sharing.〔http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/official_info/community/bat_history.jsp〕 The baseball family includes former players, both from the Major and Minor Leagues, former Negro League players, umpires, and team personnel. B.A.T. recognizes that "events and circumstances can become difficult and trying when the cheering ends," and aims to alleviate financial and medical hardships faced by former players.
==History==
The Baseball Assistance Team was founded in 1986 during the term of Commissioner Peter Ueberroth as a way for Major League Baseball and its players to take care of former players who have fallen upon hard times. Eligibility for help from B.A.T. has since been expanded to include to those with three years of service as Major League and Minor League front office personnel, umpires, scouts, Minor League players, athletic trainers, former Negro League baseball players, women from the Women’s Professional Baseball League, and their immediate families. It was founded with the goal of helping members of this ''Baseball Family'' during times of hardship, not as a long term program but as a bridge to get people back on their feet and self-sufficient without losing dignity. In 1991, a contribution from Major League Baseball, the Major League Baseball Players Association, and the Freedom Foundation established an endowment for B.A.T. While B.A.T. was not, and is not, meant to be a substitute for a pension or retirement savings, it is able to prevent eviction, cover emergency medical bills, or provide for household expenses in a time of need.
