Today, Matt LeCroy closed out Dingers for Dollars in fine style, hitting a three run dinger in the first inning. All in all, the Twins hit 13 dingers for hurricane relief—the most charitable Twins were Michael Cuddyer, Jacque Jones, and Dr. Justin Morneau with three dingers each. Matt LeCroy had two, and Li'l Rod and Little Nicky Punto each had one. With all the pledges for individual achievements and the first ten homer matching grant, and some additional pledges in the comments below, the Twins earned: $3925 for Hurricane Relief
To all of you who pledged, thank you so very, very much. Please make your donations directly to an organization that supports hurricane relief, or if your employer matches, even better. Here a few suggestions for donations:
Red Cross
United Way
Noah's Wish
American Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
