The rewards of victory keep rolling in.

Chicago Mayor Richard Daley, making good on his bet with local mayors during the Tampa Bay Rays-Chicago White Sox playoff series, has sent a bundle of Wilson Sporting Goods athletics equipment to St. Petersburg.

On Saturday, St. Petersburg Mayor Rick Baker and other local officials will turn over the goods to Little Leaguers at Oliver Field at Campbell Park, 601 14th St. S.

About 50 Little League players in uniform and representatives of the Florida District 5 Administrator for Little League Baseball International will be on hand to accept the equipment about 2 p.m.

You can add these treasures to the haul from last week, when Daley sent down Polish sausages and other Chicago-style delicacies after the Rays victory over the White Sox.

Baker and others donated the food to residents at Pinellas Hope, a Pinellas County transitional housing center at 5726 126th Ave. N.
