Ford Gum and Ripken Baseball announced last week that Big League Chew, the leading shredded bubblegum in the country known as “the Ballplayers’ Bubblegum,” will become the official bubblegum of Ripken Baseball.
Rob Nelson, the creator of Big League Chew and 12-year major league baseball veteran Bill Ripken, the brother of Baseball Hall of Famer Cal Ripken, unveiled the new Big League Chew/Ripken Baseball packaging at the recent National Confectioners Association’s Sweets & Snacks Expo last month.
