Trumbull High School grad to receive Roberto Clemente Award tonight

Craig Breslow, a 1998 graduate of Trumbull High School and current pitcher for the Oakland A’s, will be recognized as the A’s nominee for the national 2010 Roberto Clemente Award during an on-field ceremony prior to game tonight, Wednesday, Sept. 8.

The game is set for 10:05 p.m. (EST) against the Seattle Mariners.

The Roberto Clemente Award recognizes the player who best exemplifies the game of baseball, sportsmanship, community involvement and positive contribution to their team.

Over the past year, Breslow has raised close to $150,000 for childhood research and education through fund-raising events for his Strike 3 Foundation.

These fund-raising events include the foundation’s annual First Pitch Gala held each year in Connecticut, a number of smaller networking events during the off-season, a wine-tasting art event in San Francisco in July, a blackjack fund-raiser in the bay area in August, and a luncheon at Yankee Stadium this past month.

In addition, 10% of the proceeds from the A’s 2010 Community Fund Golf Classic were donated to the Strike 3 Foundation. Since its creation in 2008, Breslow’s Strike 3 Foundation has raised more than $220,000 in an effort to heighten awareness, mobilize support and raises funds for childhood cancer research.
