NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Want to work out with Brady Anderson? Or be the Orioles' public-address announcer for a day in Spring Training? Maybe watching is more your style, taking in things like manager Buck Showalter's pregame news conference, batting practice from the field and watching part of the game with executive vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette in his suite.
The Orioles are auctioning off all of those experiences in this year's Stand Up to Cancer online charity auction, which involves all 30 Major League clubs and continues until Thursday at 9 p.m. ET.
This auction initiative has raised nearly $500,000 since its inception four years ago, and a significant portion of the proceeds from this year's event will go to Stand Up To Cancer, a longtime partner of Major League Baseball, its founding donor in 2008.
