NILES, Ohio- The little boy who was hit in the head with a foul ball at a Mahoning Valley Scrappers game last year will be honored with a special day at the ballpark in August.

Luke Holko will throw out the first pitch at the Scrappers August 8 game at Eastwood Field.

Holko will also receive his own Scrappers trading card and jersey when he is recognized as an honorary Scrapper at the game.

Emergency workers who helped Luke through his injuries will also be honored.

Some tickets will be offered at a discounted price of $5, with proceeds going to Holko's family.
