PITTSBURGH -- In honor of Father's Day, the Pirates and Reds continued the league-wide efforts to raise awareness and funds for prostate cancer by wearing special caps and apparel.
Both teams sported the symbolic blue ribbon on their jerseys, wore blue caps and special blue fleece hoodies, and had the option to wear blue-dyed socks. All royalty payments from the sale of the apparel will be donated to the Prostate Cancer Foundation and Stand Up To Cancer.
Father's Day also wraps up the annual Prostate Cancer Foundation Home Run Challenge, which gives fans across the league the opportunity to make a one-time donation for every home run hit by their favorite MLB team from June 1-17.
