BLUE for Kids will submit winning bidder's name to Major League Baseball.  Winning bidder must pick up tickets at a TBD New York City hotel one day prior to the game.  Winning bidder must present valid photo ID with name and sign for tickets.  This procedure is the same for all tickets distributed by Major League Baseball.  No exceptions granted.

Tickets may not be re-sold to a third-party. 

Currently, there are more than 513,000 children in the U.S. foster care system; 114,000 of those children are available for adoption, and many of them can spend five years or more in the foster care system before they are adopted.  (Source: The Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption)  Learn more at: www.davethomasfoundationforadoption.org
