If you'd like to meet Pirates All-star and Rookie of the Year Paul Skenes, there's a way to make it happen.
For the second year in a row, Skenes has pledged to donate $100 per strike out to the Gary Sinise Foundation which benefits our nation's defenders, veterans and first responders and their families.
You are invited to join Paul in his mission and if you happen to be the largest donor between now and the home opener on April 4, you will enjoy a batting practice meet and greet and tickets for a future game.
You can donate HERE.
"I am very excited to partner again with the Gary Sinise Foundation and help our veterans and first responders during the 2025 season!” Skenes said in a release on the foundation’s website. “I have tremendous respect and admiration for the men and women who sacrifice so much to protect and serve our communities. I will again donate $100 per strikeout I record this season and ask that you join me to make a difference this year.
Thank you!"
The meet and greet is for a mutually agreeable game date during the 2025 season.
