This alarming and saddening statistic made headlines in the news around the 4th of July in 2016. Independence Day. A time in America when we come together to celebrate, enjoy leisure time, in the form of a backyard BBQ and a baseball game.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe U.S. soldier and the baseball bat are symbols of strength. War and baseball are America's favorite pastimes. The suicide squeeze is the most dangerous play in baseball. To me, the rate at which veterans are taking their own lives is the most dangerous threat to the men and women who signed up to protect our freedom. We cannot abandon our at-risk veterans like discarded broken bats in the dugout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedium: Assemblage — 20 game-used broken MLB baseball bats\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: True to size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeries: America's Favorite Pastime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYear: 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtist: Damon DeWitt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailability: Original — 1 of 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAll proceeds go to \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/mission22.com\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMission 22\u003c\/a\u003e, a nonprofit dedicated to ending veteran suicide.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"damondewitt.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44871611711581,"sku":null,"price":5000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/1466\/0201\/files\/DSCF8586_0341fde1-29bd-4fd0-b0b6-0e38ba256b80.jpg?v=1786035046","url":"https:\/\/damondewitt.com\/products\/suicide-squeeze","provider":"damondewitt.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
