Wilson® Baseball is working with three sports gear artists to create hand-painted ball gloves to raise money for charity to commemorate the Tigers and Kansas City Royals historic game in Omaha today prior to the start of the 2019 College World Series®.
Wilson and Detroit Tiger pitcher Matthew Boyd, pictured right, are partnering on uniquely painted A2000 1786 gloves.
The gloves which can be seen here will be on display at the Wilson Baseball Experience pop-up store located at the bullpen at The Omaha Baseball Village (three-minute walk from the ballpark) at 501 N 13TH St., Omaha, NE throughout the College World Series.
The distinctive gloves will be auctioned on MLB Auctions, with proceeds benefitting Matthew and Ashley Boyd’s charity Kingdom Home which works to prevent child sex slavery in Uganda.
- Glove themes include:
- Tigers/Royals (commemorating Omaha’s historic game)
- Take Me Out to The Ballgame
