MLB's Honorary Bat Girl contest recognizes baseball fans who have been affected by breast cancer and who demonstrate a commitment to supporting the fight against the disease. The Honorary Bat Girl for the Dodgers is Melissa Stockhoff of Houston, TX who will throw the ceremonial first pitch tomorrow. Scott Kazmir served as a guest judge and helped select Melissa. In September 2015, a surgical biopsy revealed that Melissa, 34 years old and a mother of three (Noah, 7; Clare, 5; Abe, 1) had breast cancer. Melissa had a diagnosis of Stage 3c breast cancer, which had developed in her breast and spread aggressively to the lymph nodes under her arm. Because of the aggressiveness of the cancer, the oncologist recommended a comprehensive treatment plan that involved several months of chemotherapy, further surgery, radiation, five to 10 years of hormone therapy and ultimately a double mastectomy. Melissa finished her final infusion of chemotherapy in March and she continues her fight against cancer. Melissa will celebrate her nine-year wedding anniversary in June and the Dodgers hold a special place in her heart, as her and her husband, Andrew, attended a Dodger game on their honeymoon. Andrew Stockhoff served five years in the U.S. Army, including a deployment to Afghanistan.
