This go-round the 10x All-Star, 3x World Series Champion, 2013 World Series MVP, and 7x Silver Slugger Award winner, won’t be slugging home runs. Instead, he will be driving golf balls to raise money for the David Ortiz Children’s Fund, which provides critical cardiac services to those in his native Dominican Republic, as well as New England who can’t afford it.

OrtizIn his fourth season as a member of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, wide receiver Chris Godwin has quickly become a leader on the offensive side of the ball and a fan favorite.
