New York Mets, All-Star Second Baseman, Jeff McNeil, and Emmy Award winner, Hank Azaria, are joining together to host a charity poker event to raise money for two very special causes at their inaugural Poker Showdown at CitiField on May 9th, 2024. McNeil’s charity of choice will be the Metropolitan PGA Foundation, and Azaria has chosen The Soul Focused Group. This spectacular evening will include poker, cocktails, dinner, golf, magic, and more as we come together to raise money for these two remarkable organizations. Hank and Jeff have invited their friends in the sports and entertainment industries to join us for this evening.
Jeff McNeil: “I am looking forward to hosting the Poker Showdown charity event with Hank Azaria at CitiField. Golf is more than just a hobby for me, it’s a passion of mine, and to be able to host a charity event that can support and give back to the community and Metropolitan PGA Foundation is something I am very excited to be a part of,” said McNeil. “I am so grateful for the support from everyone, your donations will mean so much to the youth and veterans in our community.”
Hank Azaria: “I’d be really thrilled to partner with Jeff McNeil and the Mets over almost anything, but I’m especially thrilled to play poker and raise money for two wonderful organizations that Jeff and I care about very deeply. Since my dream of playing shortstop for the Mets died many many years ago, I’m looking forward to the next best thing- playing cards with the amazings!”
