The Generosity of BWH Physicians is a Hit On and Off the Field
On Friday June 14, physicians from BWH and MGH were awarded the opportunity of a lifetime – the chance to play ball at Fenway Park. This is the fifth consecutive year that Partners physicians and other hospital staff were part of the daylong fund raising event called “Field of Dreams.” The softball game raises money for Action for Boston Community Development (ABCD), Boston’s oldest anti-poverty agency. Established in 1962, ABCD serves more than 100,000 low-income Boston residents each year through Headstart, fuel assistance, job training and other related programs.
BWH physician participants included team co-captain Patrick O’Gara, MD; Robert Goldszer, MD; Richard Zane, MD; Robert Rizzo, MD; Joel Katz, MD; Joshua Beckman, MD; Marie Gerhard, MD; Bonnie Bermas, MD; Patricia Finn, MD; and Stanton Shernan, MD.
Partners HealthCare played against TJX; the Partners team won 12-8.
