Tampa Yankees News Release
The Tampa Yankees and DuraZone teamed up for this year's Annual Pink Out Night held on Saturday, May 12th. In total, the event raised $7,600 for the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Research Center and Institute.
Over 2,500 fans, the majority clad in pink attire, entered the stadium to enjoy the Tampa Yankees game. Players wore pink pinstripe jerseys, which were auctioned off during the game. Auction winners had the opportunity to go onto the field after the game to meet the player who wore the jersey, and get it autographed.
Breast Cancer Survivors joined the team on the field for the national anthem and were recognized by the team and fans for their battle against the life-threatening disease.
Thanks to everyone who participated in this year's Pink Out Night and we hope to see you again next year!
