Anyone who makes a donation in any amount to the National Domestic Violence Hotline or your local women’s shelter/domestic violence charity of choice and sends us your receipt (via Twitter DM to @apodoftheirown or via email to aa.apodoftheirown@gmail.com) will be entered into a drawing for several pieces of Mets memorabilia. We will do this drawing on an episode of the show in late February when pitchers and catchers report. Let’s get fundraising!

Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.
