For each home run hit by Triple-A teams (home and road games) during the Triple- A Final Stretch, Minor League Baseball will donate $50 per home run to a local charity selected by the team. The team hitting the most home runs over the 10-game span will generate an extra $5,000 donation for their charity. The Triple-A Final Stretch begins tonight, when Jacksonville hosts Memphis, while the remaining Triple-A clubs will begin their Final Stretch games on Sept. 22 or 23. “Minor League Baseball teams have long been great community partners, and we are pleased to make a donation to each of these local charities on behalf of our Triple- A teams for their performance during the Triple-A Final Stretch,” said Major League Baseball’s Vice President, Minor League Operations and Development, **Peter Woodfork**.“ These charities provide a variety of valuable services to their community, and it is our honor to recognize their efforts.” The local charities selected to receive the donation include: Albuquerque Isotopes– [Enlace Comunitario](https://www.enlacenm.org/)Buffalo Bisons – [WNY Heroes](https://wnyheroes.org/) Charlotte Knights – [Baseball For Life](https://www.baseballforlife.org/)Columbus Clippers – [The Buckeye Ranch](https://www.buckeyeranch.org/)Durham Bulls – [Durham Bulls Youth Athletic League](https://www.dbyal.com/) El Paso Chihuahuas – [El Paso Border Youth Athletic Association](https://borderyouth.org/) Gwinnett Stripers – [Trans Housing Atlanta](http://transhousingatlanta.org/)Indianapolis Indians – [Indianapolis RBI](https://www.indyrbi.org/)Iowa Cubs – [Kiwanis Miracle League](https://kiwanismiracleleague.org/) Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp – [5000 Role Models of Excellence Project](https://dcps.duvalschools.org/5000rolemodels) Las Vegas Aviators – [YMCA of Southern Nevada](https://www.lasvegasymca.org/)Lehigh Valley IronPigs – [Boys & Girls Club of Allentown](https://www.bgcallentown.org/) Louisville Bats – [Boys & Girls Club of Kentuckiana](https://www.bgckyana.org/)Memphis Redbirds – [Memphis Little League](http://www.memphislittleleague.com/)Nashville Sounds – [Nashville RBI](https://nashvillerbi.leagueapps.com/)Norfolk Tides – [Booker T.
