The Amateur Softball Association (ASA) and USA Softball look to surpass $50,000 in total donations to Central Oklahoma affiliate of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure® foundation as it will launch its third eBay auction beginning September 17 at noon CST and concluding September 27 at noon, with over 60 pink items up for bid. Both the USA Softball National Team and the Futures Team donned pink uniforms, apparel and equipment in two "Pink Out" games during the KFC World Cup of Softball presented by Six Flags, July 22-26, at the ASA Hall of Fame Stadium in Oklahoma City, Okla., to honor breast cancer survivors and create awareness for breast cancer research.

UW fans can find the jerseys of Ashley Charters, Shawna Wright and Niki Williams, along with signed cleats, knee pads and batting gloves from Charter's.

In 2008, $25,000 was raised and in 2009, $12,500 was raised. With over 60 items up for bid, the most in three years, the ASA/USA Softball hopes to raise its biggest donation yet. The auction includes the game-worn jersey from each player on the National team and on the Futures Team. Also featured are more than 25 items that were specially made for the USA Softball Players to wear during July's pink game at the World Cup. There is also a bat signed by the entire National Team, a glove signed by the entire Futures Team and a banner signed by the National Team that was presented to breast cancer survivors before the USA vs. Japan game.
