But in this charity event, everybody wins
By ANDREW MARTIN
HOPE VALLEY – Dow Field was filled with heroes – both local and national – for last Saturday night’s charity softball game to benefit the Richmond Police I.B.P.O. #425.
The game pitted the Richmond Police Department’s all-stars against New England Patriots alumni. You could safely bet on the fact that children and adults alike were eager to see former stars take the field once again, albeit a different one.
“Scotty Z!” one excited fan yelled as former Patriots quarterback Scott Zolak warmed up with other players including defensive greats Ronnie Lippett and Roland James.
Standing right by the Pats’ dugout was a handful of kids sporting jerseys awaiting the end of the game, when they could get the bigger-than-life men to sign football helmets and notepads alike.
Although the Richmond Police put up a solid fight in the first few innings, the Patriots pulled away and ended up winning the game in a 12-4 blowout.
But, in a way, Richmond still truly won as it took home $10,000 through advertising and donations to go toward the Richmond Police I.B.P.O. #425. That money will support the various activities held throughout the year by the department.
