The APBA GO JIMMY FUND TOURNAMENT
Gordon Edes, extraordinary sports writer since 1972 and Offical Boston Red Sox historian, is hosting an APBA GO tournament to benefit the Jimmy Fund…Here is Gordon’s annoucement of the Jimmy Fund tournament:
"Missing the action of the postseason? Ever play a computer-sim baseball game, or want to try? Want to play for a chance to win 2020 (Red) Sox tickets, a tour of Fenway Park (including BP) conducted by me? Helping the Jimmy Fund at the same time? With the help of APBAGO.com- the same folks who brought you the great baseball board game APBA- I’m launching a
tournament this month. Make a $50 donation to the Jimmy Fund- and you will be enrolled to play. Donate here:http://twitter.com/GordonEdes/status/1175385323112718336 First come, first served.Manage any MLB team from 1946 on. Manage Ted and Dom, Pedro and David, Yaz and Rico, Schill and Tek, even Reggie and Thurman.
Format will depend upon the number of players. Best- of-seven finals will be held at Fenway. Tourney winner then plays me (Gordon) to win a baseball uniform jersey of their choice. Donate by Oct. 15 to play."
I’m sure many of you have managed a game from Fenway in your APBA cave. Now is a chance to manage at the real place.
Since its founding in 1948, the Jimmy Fund has raised millions of dollars through thousands of grassroots efforts to help save lives and give hope to cancer patients everywhere.
Good luck to those who enter the Jimmy Fund Tournament.
