One of the last weeks of Fall Ball produced a busy week of Hoosier Baseball in the News.
• There was plenty of positive response to the job done by all involved with the Charity Fall Ball game at Bosse Field. NBC 14 News was on hand Saturday for the game. Megan DiVenti produced a video recap including interviews with Drew Ashley, Don Mattingly, Cal Krueger and Elijah Dunham.
Following the game it was announced that over $35K was raised due to the event.
We raised $35,676 on Saturday for @CureFA_org . Thank you to the 2,795 fans who came out to game, great people who donated, @USIBaseball @iubase17 and the Evansville community. #CureFA pic.twitter.com/J6gRpIWjtb
