The Beloit Sky Carp are teaming up with Mason Crosby, Jordy Nelson, and TEAM LAMMI to bring back the Border Brouhaha Softball Slam on Sunday, July 19, at ABC Supply Stadium.
Proudly presented by The Morse Group and Alliant Energy, this action-packed charity softball game will feature Wisconsin and Illinois sports legends coming together to raise money for Make-A-Wish Wisconsin. First pitch is set for 3:00 p.m., creating a fun, family-friendly afternoon focused on community and giving back.
