Blue Rocks Game for Buddy Hurlock '87's Foundation
From the News Journal: It was the type of near-perfect spring day during which Buddy Hurlock would escape the press box at Frawley Stadium and cover the Blue Rocks from the grandstand. Unfortunately, Hurlock, a News Journal sportswriter, is unable to cover Rocks games or his greatest passion – Delaware high school sporting events – as he battles optic nerve glioma, a rare form of brain cancer.
On Sunday, the Blue Rocks hosted both the Myrtle Beach Pelicans and Buddy’s Battle, in which $4 of each special $10 Buddy ticket was donated to the Hurlock family to help offset their medical expenses. In addition, proceeds from a silent auction of items from the Phillies, Eagles, Dover International Speedway, Delaware Park, rounds of golf and other items went to Hurlock’s cause.
