Mark your calendars for the third annual Crushin’ For A Cause Celebrity Home Run Derby. Join The 6-4-3 Foundation and SagerStrong Foundation on Saturday, January 31st at Aviation Sports Complex in Marietta! Sports fans of all ages are invited to Crushin’ for a Cause – a baseball-themed festival-style afternoon of good food, family fun and games, music, silent auction and more all leading up to the Celebrity Home Run Derby. The event features 6-4-3 DP Baseball, KSU, and Sprayberry Alum and Braves prospect Tyler Tolve along with professional hitters from organizations across the country, many of whom are local players! Last year’s winner was River Ridge HS’s Cael Chatham of the Washington Wild Things.
New this year, the event will feature the best young talent from across Metro Atlanta during the Prep Baseball GA Amateur Home Run Derby, prior to the professionals, beginning at 1 pm! Baseball organizations including the East Cobb Astros, Team Elite, USA Scout, 6-4-3 DP Baseball and others will each have representatives competing for the title! General Admission tickets are $20 each, or $60 for a family of five, with proceeds benefiting The 6-4-3 Foundation’s community scholarship and out reach initiatives, and SagerStrong Foundation’s blood cancer research initiatives that support cancer patients and their families.
“The event was such a great time – raising funds for The 6-4-3 Foundation and SagerStrong Foundation that we decided to make it an annual event!” said Tyler Tolve. “I wanted to make a difference, and pay it forward, and raise funds for younger players that have aspirations to play baseball on a professional level one day, as well as help raise funds for blood cancer research through Crushin’ for a Cause! Thank you to all of my teammates and colleagues for supporting the event each year!”
