]T-Shirts Being Sold With Net Profits Going to Announcers� Favorite Charities

(NEW YORK CITY, May 14, 2008). SNY television announcers Gary Cohen, Keith Hernandez & Ron Darling today launched their �Pitch in for a Good Cause� website where fans can purchase custom designed tee shirts with net proceeds from the sales going to the New York sportscasters� favorite charities. The website is also interactive with fans being able to submit their favorite Gary, Keith & Ron stories, as well as photos of people wearing the tee shirts. Fans can also learn about their favorite sports announcers through a �Getting to Know 3 Guys in a Booth� page, where they can ask questions.

�It takes a community to weather the storms of life,� said Gary Cohen, voice of the New York Mets. �We�re asking our fans � our community � to join us in helping others.�

The website is offering four different tee shirts. One has Cohen�s signature phrase, �It�s Outta Here.� Another features caricatures of Hernandez�s fans all wearing his #17 jersey, sporting his mustache, wearing his famous footwear and enjoying a pop. Darling�s tee pays tribute to �Mr. Perfect,� as well as his many numbers and nicknames. The fourth is the official �Gary, Keith and Ron tee-shirt,� providing a humorous but loving portrait of the sportscasters� fans. All fans who purchase a tee shirt will be invited to an end of the year fundraising event.

�My mother died of Alzheimer�s at the age of 59, so for the last 15 years I�ve helped raise funds for the Cobble Hill Health Center in Brooklyn because of its terrific care for the elderly with dementia, Alzheimer�s and other related disorders,� explained Hernandez. �And that�s the charity I�ve selected.�
�I chose the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation because of its dedication to finding a cure for juvenile diabetes,� Darling said. �Since my youngest son was stricken with JD at the age of 11, one of my goals is to make his life and lifestyle as promising as any other child�s.�

�Domestic violence touches everyone, and I�ve picked the Women�s Shelter of Greater Danbury because of the enormous life-changing impact this safe house has on women and their children,� explained Cohen.

The official Gary, Keith & Ron tee shirt can be purchased for $22.99, and the other three tees featuring the individual sportscasters cost $20.99. All four can be purchased for a discounted price of $75.00. The Gary, Keith & Ron website is http://www.garykeithandron.com.
