The Yankees Double-A affiliate, the Trenton Thunder, and the Phillies Low-A affiliate, the Lakewood (N.J.) BlueClaws, have teamed up to give every kid ages 12 and under who comes to a home game at either park this season – 141 games in all – a free hotdog, bag of chips and 12 oz. drink.

“We really couldn’t be happier to do this,” added Thunder General Manager Will Smith. “We recognize the struggles everyone is facing, and we’re thrilled to offer an even greater value to fans in 2009.”
