Ohio’s two Major League Baseball teams are coming together in a big way to support local charities.
Later this month, the families of the Cincinnati Reds and Cleveland Guardians are coming together for a charity softball game benefiting Court Appointed Special Advocates for Children (CASA) and the Reds Community Fund, uniting baseball communities across Ohio to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children. The game will take place on Monday, July 27, at 10 a.m. at the P&G MLB Cincinnati Reds Youth Academy in Roselawn.
“I’m so excited to be part of the upcoming charity softball game and support CASA’s and the Reds Community Fund’s incredible missions,” said Jordyn Pagán, wife of Cincinnati Reds pitcher Emilio Pagán. “It’s a great opportunity for our Reds Wives to bring our community together, raise awareness for children and families who need a voice, and make a meaningful impact.”
Last year, the event took place in Cleveland, and the families of the Reds and Guardians raised a combined $18,500. Reds families contributed $11,000 of that total, helping CASA advocate for children who have experienced abuse or neglect by providing them with a voice in the courtroom and support in finding safe, permanent homes.
The event offers fans a unique opportunity to enjoy a fun, family-friendly competition while supporting organizations committed to strengthening communities and improving the lives of children. Tickets are $20 for adults and free for kids. 100% of proceeds go to charity: $10 will benefit CASA and $10 will benefit the Reds Community Fund.
