The Bristol Blues of the Futures Collegiate Baseball League raised $1,756 at the first annual Pink Night to benefit Bristol Hospital's Beekley Center for Breast Health and Wellness. The event was part of the Bristol Blues/Seacoast Mavericks game that took place at Muzzy Field. The funds were raised from the nightly 50/50 raffle as well as the auction of the players' game-worn pink jerseys and pink bats that were used during the game. Staff from the Beekley Center for Breast Health and Wellness as well as four breast cancer survivors and Beekley Medical employees threw out the game's ceremonial first pitch.
