The Bees will donate $1 to the Huntsman Cancer Foundation for every ticket sold Saturday at slbees.com. The first 2,000 fans will receive a pink t-shirt. Gates open at 5:35 p.m.

A "Buy It Now" auction for the player-worn jerseys and other team memorabilia will be held during the game with proceeds benefiting HCF. In partnership with Swing for Life, the Bees will also have available for purchase pink t-shirts, pink candy, and pink mini-bats with all proceeds benefiting HCF.

A fireworks show is scheduled for after the game.
