ILB to go Pink Tonight

To show our support for The Cure Baseball Inside Lions Baseball will be going "Pink" tonight at midnight.  For the next seven days the background color of our blog will be pink to show support for people and families who have been affected by cancer.  The Cure Baseball is a nonprofit organization supporting this mission through a collegiate summer league team, support groups, a scholarship fund and donations to cancer research groups.

The Cure Baseball's mission is "to raise cancer awareness through the game of baseball. Our organization is truly unique in taking two things, cancer and baseball, that so many people can relate to but wouldn't necessarily tie together and creating a team that everyone can cheer for."   

Please visit The Cure Baseball website at www.thecurebaseball.org and support their cause.  Click the link below to read the story of how Alex Paluka, CEO and Founder of The Cure Baseball, created the idea of putting baseball and cancer together in honor of his mother.
