Jesús Luzardo and Anthony Bender presented a check for $32,925 to the AutoNation Foundation’s DRV PNK effort from funds raised during this year's Strike Out Cancer initiative. For every strikeout recorded by a Marlins pitcher during the 2024 season, $25 was donated to the program.

Along with presenting the check, the pair spent time with patients undergoing cancer treatment at Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital.

Luzardo, who is Miami’s Roberto Clemente Award nominee, and Bender also visited rooms throughout the hospital to deliver Totes for Hope comfort bags to the children.
