Today is a big day, not just for me because I’m cued up to embarrass myself in front of a whole bunch of people, but because together we are raising awareness for ALS. This is a HUGE opportunity to cause a ruckus, to get people’s attention, and to bring light to this devastating disease. Trust me, just because you don’t have the pressure of throwing the ball, you can make a great impact with a few simple steps. I’ll break it out for those going to tonight’s Rangers game vs the Redsocks where yours truly is throwing out the ceremonial first pitch and those smart enough to stay in and watch it from the comfort of your couch and with AC.
For Everyone:
- Game is 7:05 CST and will be aired on FSSW and NESN
- Post on social media using hashtags: #alssucks #sunnystrong
- Include blog when you can: sunnystrongblog.wordpress.com

For those going to the game:
- I am meeting the Rangers staff at Guest Services behind homeplate at 6PM
- They told me to tell you to have your butt in your seat by 6:30
