Before we dive into what Bishop brings to the Mariners on the field, lets take a moment and praise him for his work off the field. Bishop works extensively to raise money and awareness for dementia and Alzheimer disease patients.
Founded during his days playing for the University of Washington, Bishop’s organization, 4MOM, to help his own mother fight this dreadful disease. The foundation has currently found its way across many platforms, with pledges from players and fans for every result on the field.
Bishop himself has pledged $10 for every hit he gets in 2018, and other Mariners and players across the Major League Baseball landscape have joined in.
