Major League Baseball (MLB) umpires offered more than 300 items including priceless, autographed sports memorabilia, rarely available specialty MLB logo caps, and one-of-a-kind experiences during the 14th Annual UMPS CARE Charities Online Auction.
The auction featured signed baseballs from Hall of Famers Nolan Ryan and Joe Torre, current stars Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Cody Bellinger, and Juan Soto, and, of course, MLB umpires!
Proceeds will support our UMPS CARE programs – on-the-field, VIP experiences, hospital visits with Build-A-Bear experiences, college scholarships and training teens to become umpires.
“This online auction is a true win-win for everyone – there are so many unique items up for bid and the proceeds help make our UMPS CARE Charities programs run smoothly,” said UMPS CARE Charities President Gary Darling, who served as a Major League umpire for nearly three decades. “We are grateful to MLB.com for its continued support for UMPS CARE and our programs.”
