LAS VEGAS -- In MLB's annual Winter Meetings charity auction, the Red Sox are offering some choice opportunities to give fans an up-close and personal experience.
This year's auction will support the Jackie Robinson Foundation and the Negro Leagues Museum, two important institutions that educate future generations of young people through honoring significant moments and individuals of baseball's past.
• Bid now in Red Sox charity auction
The auction is live on MLB.com/wintermeetingsauction through Thursday at 10 p.m. ET. Items include special baseball experiences, including meetings with some of the game's biggest stars, along with unique items donated by MLB and the 30 clubs.
One of the top items on the list: an opportunity for a child under the age of 12 to sit near the dugout during pregame ceremonies and walk the lineup cards out to the umpires prior to a game at Fenway Park. The winner and three guests will also get a meet and greet with American League Most Valuable Player Award winner Mookie Betts, premium tickets to a mutually agreed-upon game and a personalized message shown on the New Balance video board during that game.
Another great item for bid is four Green Monster Seat tickets and the opportunity to throw out the first pitch on a mutually agreed-upon game next season. The experience must be booked by March 1.
