Ballplayers join Rally Foundation against childhood cancer

Last Thursday marked the second annual Rally Foundation Benefit Bash with Mizuno Big League Players. Held in the elegant "Overlook" at the Atlanta History Center, the event raised $183,000 for childhood cancer research. Attendees included Chipper Jones, Kelly Johnson, Blaine Boyer, Micah Owings, and Leo Mazzone, with Brian and Ashley McCann serving as honorary chairs.

A few shots of the guests and hosts:

(I'd like to point out that I managed to use completely different lighting in each of the above pictures. That takes talent.)
