Tuesday, May 21, is the Giants 20th anniversary of Until There's a Cure Night, presented by Gilead and the Giants Community Fund.

Giants closer Rod Beck was one of the first professional athletes to embrace the cause and lend his support to finding a cure for HIV and AIDS. His wife, Stacey, and daughters, Kayla and Kelsey, will participate in the night's events. Fans who purchase a special event ticket for UTAC Night will receive a collector's edition Rod Beck bobblehead.
