Battle of the Badges
NYPD and FDNY will face off in the third annual Battle of the Badges charity baseball game presented by Your Local Ford Stores at Citi Field on Thursday, September 12 at 7:10 p.m. Former Mets Captain and seven-time All-Star David Wright will be the host of the game and will honor an NYPD and FDNY hero for doing “The Wri5ht Thing” prior to the game.
Each team will consist of former high school, college and minor league baseball players that are now members of FDNY or NYPD.
Last year in front of a record crowd of 7,314, FDNY defeated NYPD, 7-4 to give New York’s Bravest a 13-12 advantage over New York’s Finest in this historic battle.
Tickets are $20. A portion of the ticket sales will benefit the FDNY Foundation and NYCPBA Widows & Children's Fund, plus other organizations.
