In conjunction with the 2017 Winter Meetings, the Los Angeles Dodgers joined MLB’s efforts in organizing an online charity auction to benefit the Katharine Feeney Memorial Scholarship Fund. All 30 clubs participate in memory of the late baseball executive whose career spanned 40 years.

The auction closes Thursday, Dec. 14, at 7 p.m. PT. Funds raised will support an annual scholarship that will be awarded to a female student at the University of San Francisco who most exemplifies Feeney’s character.

Up for auction with the Dodgers are three separate experiences, headlined by the opportunity to have lunch with the always-entertaining Yasiel Puig. The winning bidder will enjoy lunch with Puig prior to a mutually agreed upon Dodgers home game next season.

Also up for auction is the chance to serve as a bat boy/bat girl for a Spring Training game.

Children 12 years old and older are eligible. The winning bidder will receive a package that includes four tickets to a mutually agreed upon Cactus League game at the Dodgers’ Camelback Ranch Spring Training facility. Travel and lodging are not included.

Lastly, a winning bidder can hold the honor of saying the longstanding custom, It’s Time for Dodger Baseball over the public address system before a game at Dodger Stadium. The experience includes four field level tickets to a mutually agreed upon date.
