SweetSpot Sports, based in Minnetonka, MN, has partnered with Walker Buehler, the LA Dodgers pitcher, as brand ambassador and investor.
The upstart maker of baseballs and softballs said Buehler will promote a line of products geared toward baseball players, recreational ballplayers and active backyard gamers. Buehler is a shareholder in SweetSpot Sports, LLC, to help the brand grow its market footprint.
Buehler, a former NCAA and College World Series champion at the University of Vanderbilt, is a two-time MLB All-Star and a member of the 2020 World Series Champion Dodgers.
“SweetSpot makes the best bat and ball available for players of all skill levels,” said Buehler. “I’m excited to be partnering with a team that is excited to grow the game with truly innovative and well-made products.”
“Walker Buehler is without a doubt one of the most electric and exciting young players in the game today,” said SweetSpot President, Dave Soderquist. “His abilities, magnetism and desire to grow the game of baseball make him a perfect partner for SweetSpot as we look to expand our unique brand.”
