Baxter pumps up the crowd for the All-Star Color Run

Jul 10, 2016, 10:11 AM

Another member of the Arizona Diamondbacks has found his way to San Diego for the All-Star festivities, and he hasn’t swung a bat all season.

D-backs’ mascot Baxter was getting the crowd pumped up before the annual All-Star Color Run. The Color Run is five kilometers and a can’t miss All-Star event, which features mascots and baseball legends.

The run takes participants through downtown San Diego, and ends with a huge Finish Festival.

Paul Goldschmidt, America’s first baseman, will represent the D-backs on the diamond in San Diego for the 2016 MLB All-Star game on July 12.
