Pink Bat Day: Bid on signed bats

Major League Baseball players around the country will be hitting with pink bats Sunday, doing their part on Mother's Day to draw attention to the fight against breast cancer with Going to Bat. And just for our readers, New York Yankees mega-stars Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez, as well as Good Morning America personImage alities Robin Roberts, Diane Sawyer, Chris Cuomo and Sam Champion, have signed pink bats to put up for auction. Roberts, as her loyal fans know, just finished treatment for breast cancer. "It’s fantastic that you’re having these world-class athletes involved in an initiative like this," says Roberts, who participated in our photo shoot with A-Rod and Jeter. "It just helps bring attention to a much needed problem."
If you would like to have one of those signed bats, click here to bid.
