Todd Frazier Donates to the Field of Dreams
Frazier contributes to the realization of Field of Dreams for Special Needs.
A hometown connection can often be all that's required to get an idea off the ground, whether it's for a small business, a community project, or, in Christian Kane's case, a Field of Dreams. Todd Frazier, a former MLB All-Star, happened to be his hometown connection.
After hearing from Gavin Kane, a Toms River boy who suffered a traumatic brain injury in a vehicle accident in 2012, Frazier gave $50,000 to assist establish the Todd Frazier Special Needs Baseball League at the property at the Toms River Field of Dreams.
Ribbon Cutting at the Field of Dreams
Kane wanted to play in a special needs baseball league, but the nearest site was 90 minutes away from his home. It prompted his father, Christian, to open a one-of-a-kind special needs facility in Toms River, complete with a playground, basketball court, baseball field, and other amenities.
