What we know:
The team posted a job opening for its mascot sprinter last week and is letting anyone apply.
The job description says: "If you are driven to deliver exceptional fan experiences that are beyond anything possible elsewhere and interested in working alongside a team of innovators and enthusiastic overachievers, you will enjoy working with us!"
In addition to being able to run, the Braves say a potential "The Freeze" should be comfortable entertaining large crowds and have a knowledge of baseball.
Dig deeper:
RaceTrac’s "The Freeze" races a fan every home game at Truist Park.
This year, the sprinter was defeated by Amira Hardy-Dozier, a Cobb County police officer.
What you can do:
You can apply on the team’s website.
Applicants will have to audition on Dec. 13 to become the next sprinter.
