Beloved sports reporter Craig Sager passed away last December after a battle with leukemia and sports fans and franchises across North America are still finding ways to honour him.
From murals to custom cleats to charitable initiatives, fans and teams have found many different ways to pay tribute to Sager and they’re still going. The Daytona Tortugas, the Cincinnati Reds’ High-A affiliate, will be hosting a Sager Strong Night next month when they host the Jupiter Hammerheads on Friday, July 21.
Sager was known for his outrageous suits and the Tortugas are following in his footsteps with their custom jerseys for the event.
The jerseys will be auctioned off the night of the game and the proceeds will go to the Sager Strong Foundation, a charity which funds clinical trials and cancer research for leukemia and other blood cancers.
