Pirates star goes to bat for several area causes
SOURCE:Major League Baseball Players Trust
DESCRIPTION:
Pittsburgh Pirates All-Star outfielder, Andrew McCutchen, has become the face of the Pirates franchise over the course of his nine big league seasons.
‘Cutch’ took home the 2013 National League Most Valuable Player honors and has been elected to the NL All-Star team five times in his career, however, perhaps the most significant accolade he has received is the 2015 Roberto Clemente Award. The award, which shows a player’s sportsmanship, community involvement and contributions to his respective team, is voted on by the fans and members of the media.
While all winners of this award are certainly deserving of the recognition, McCutchen sets the bar high. Find out why by clicking here.
