Tickets available for Saturday's New Stars for Young Stars fundraiser
Tickets are still available for the ninth New Stars for Young Stars fundraiser, taking place this Saturday at 11:00 AM at Jillian's Boston. The annual event benefits the Jimmy Fund and features some of the top young prospects in the Red Sox system signing autographs in a meet-and-greet style format.
The lineup includes SoxProspects.com Offensive Player of the Year Mookie Betts, Blake Swihart, Drake Britton and Rubby De La Rosa. New Red Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski will also be in attendance.
Aside from the autograph session, there will also be a bowling competition, buffet lunch, sports memorabilia sale and silent auction.
Tickets, which can be purchased here, start at $89, and VIP tickets are $250. All proceeds will go to the Jimmy Fund. The first eight editions of "New Stars for Young Stars" have raised more than $221,000 for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the Jimmy Fund.
