A Taste of The Bigs

In case you've got $12,995 you're dying to get rid of, Major League Baseball will treat you like a big-leaguer for nine days.
For that low, low price, you can be on one of six 20-person teams and travel to six major league ballparks, playing games and receiving instruction from a slate of former major leaguers including Tony Phillips, Brett Saberhagen and former Mariners manager Maury Wills.
The program is run by a company called "Ultimate Experiences," whose partners include Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton.
The first tour begins Nov. 4 and tours the West Coast, starting in Phoenix and ending in Seattle.
No word on whether participants will be tested for steroids.
