The game, which is touted as the first annual “Chris Duffy’s Hit & Run Celebrity Softball Game for Charity” starts at 5 p.m. and is sponsored by the Above .500 foundation and the Jackie Robinson Program.
The event has former UCF and NFL Quarterback Daunte Culpepper, former Orlando Magic player Nick Anderson, former UCF outfielder Chris Duffy, former UCF and Detroit Lions running back Kevin Smith, 2-time MLB all-star David Eckstein and former Boston Celtic Marquis Daniels all committed to attend the game.
The public will be asked for a $5 donation to enter and a $25 VIP pass guarantees the opportunity for photographs and signatures from celebrities in attendance.
