“We are huge baseball fans, and we are proud to support these four MLB teams as their car rental partner,” said Rob Connors, National’s vice president of brand marketing. “There is nothing quite like the experience of going to the ballpark, whether it’s with friends and family or a client entertainment event. We’re honored to be a part of this quintessential American sport.”
