Candy Digital Celebrates MLB’s Biggest Moments of the Year with Coveted Digital Collectibles and New Experiences for Baseball Fans Everywhere

“During 2022 MLB All-Star week, close to 10,000 of Candy’s digital collectibles provided baseball fans with innovative and fun ways to collect and celebrate the biggest moments in MLB, and we’re thrilled to be supporting one of the highlight events of the season again - the 2023 All-Star Game,” said Scott Lawin, CEO of Candy Digital. “This year, all fans attending the Game can mint an exclusive and limited edition commemorative ticket sponsored by Mastercard for free at Candy.com. We hope these digital collectible tickets provide fans with a new way to hold on to their memories and deepen their connection to MLB and their favorite MLB players.”

Last week, to celebrate the launch of MLB Virtual Ballpark and the online watch party for the MLB All-Star Celebrity Softball Game presented by Corona, it was announced that all attendees will receive a commemorative digital ticket created by Candy Digital. This week, on Tuesday July 11th, all Mastercard users who purchased tickets and attend the 2023 MLB All-Star Game can redeem the exclusive commemorative digital tickets on http://go.candy.com/allstar.

A special 3D MLB All-Star digital collectible baseball will be available for all fans to redeem between July 7th and 31st. Each redemption automatically enters fans into a sweepstakes to win two tickets to the 2023 World Series presented by Capital One*.

Candy Digital perks just don’t stop at the All-Star Game. Candy is honored to partner with the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum by offering commemorative digital tickets at this year’s Induction Ceremony, featuring Scott Rolen and Fred McGriff. Starting Monday July 10th and continuing through the remainder of 2023, Candy will offer commemorative digital tickets to visitors to the Baseball Hall of Fame Museum- a baseball fan haven visited by hundreds of thousands of fans annually. This digital ticket offers a novel way to pay homage to some of the most revered names in the sport's deep history.

Rounding out an exciting roster of fan engagements, starting July 10th, Elias Sports Bureau, the official statistician of the MLB, and Candy Digital are joining forces to level up Candy Code Breakers Challenges. Each week, Candy customers can use their MLB digital collectibles to answer baseball trivia questions to earn points and win rewards, including exclusive packs, autographed merchandise, and more.

Through this partnership with MLB, MLBPA, and the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, Candy Digital strives to inspire a new generation of baseball enthusiasts while honoring the sport's remarkable heritage.
