SALISBURY, Md. — The Delmarva Shorebirds are proud to announce the results from the 2017 PRMC Pink Pitch Night to benefit the Richard A. Henson Cancer Institute, as the team presented a check for $2,270.61.
“Our organization is always happy to help a very important part of the community such as the Richard A. Henson Cancer Institute,” Shorebirds general manager Chris Bitters said. “Thank you to our fans who answered the call and showed their support with donations.”
The 2017 PRMC Pink Pitch Night was held on Saturday, May 13th at Arthur W. Perdue Stadium when the Delmarva Shorebirds faced the Greenville Drive. Shorebirds players and coaches wore special pink jerseys that were auctioned off during the game, with the funds raised being presented to the Richard A.
