_Triple-A teams combine to launch 314 home runs over 140 games_

**New York, NY, October 4, 2021 —** [Minor League Baseball](http://www.milb.com)
™ (MiLB™) today announced the Homers That Help campaign during the Triple-A Final
Stretch raised $20,700 for 501(c)3 charities across the 30 Triple-A communities.

Each home run hit by Triple-A teams over the final 10 games of the season generated
a $50 donation to a local charity selected by each team. By leading the Final Stretch
with 24 home runs, the Omaha Storm Chasers also claimed the overall Homers That 
Help prize, a $5,000 donation for their charity, the B&B Sports Academy in Omaha.

“We are very pleased that the stretch drive of the Triple-A season not only generated
excitement for fans but also donations to deserving organizations in our communities
across the country,” said Major League Baseball’s Senior Vice President, Minor League
Operations and Development, **Peter Woodfork**. “We thank our players and clubs 
for their efforts throughout our return to the field this year and look forward 
to an even more exciting 2022.”

“We are thrilled to be the recipient of the Homers that Help championship donation
and we want to thank the Storm Chasers organization and Minor League Baseball for
their support and generosity,” said B&B Sports Academy Co-founder **Terence “Bud”
Crawford**. “This money will help us further our programming at the gym, helping
more at-risk kids in our community.”
