The Albuquerque Isotopes and BUSH'S® Beans are working with Roadrunner Food Bank to "Team Up Against Hunger." In its second year, this program encourages fans to bring non-perishable food donations to Isotopes Park this Sunday, July 22, to help feed the local community through Roadrunner Food Bank. Ninety Minor League Baseball™(MiLB) clubs across the country will "Team Up Against Hunger" throughout the month of July. The month is significant as it marks the middle of summer break and a crucial time when millions of children are not receiving free or reduced-price meals at their schools as they do when school is in session.

"We are honored to partner with BUSH'S Beans and Roadrunner Food Bank to bring the issue of hunger to light using our MiLB platform," said Isotopes General Manager John Traub. "This is a great way to bring the community together to show that we are united in the fight against hunger in our community."
"As a family-owned food company, it is important to everyone at BUSH'S to help hungry families," said Mike Morris, consumer experience manager at Bush Brothers & Co. "Working with Minor League Baseball and communities nationwide helps bring attention and action to a very important topic - beating hunger."
