Cole Carrigg has HIT THE MITT! @uchealth is donating $5,000 to @AthleticBeyond! https://t.co/3j2UoowKB3 Via @Rockies on X

What happened: Cole Carrigg hit the designated target, triggering a $5,000 UCHealth donation to Athletics & Beyond. The contribution rewards home runs that strike the left-field banner or land in the adjacent tunnel.

Why it matters: The promotion turns Carrigg's home run into direct support for a Denver youth program focused on sports, mentoring and leadership development. Donations will accumulate through the end of the 2026 season.

By the numbers: Each qualifying home run generates $5,000. The promotion is in its eighth season after four qualifying homers raised $20,000 in 2025.

What to watch: The running donation total will rise with each additional qualifying home run this season.
