The Lucky Classic is a celebrity softball game hosted by The Burger Family Foundation, founded by Texas Rangers infielder Jake Burger and his wife, Ashlyn. The event will bring together MLB players, country artists, comedians, and special guests for an unforgettable day of fun and purpose.
Presented by BRUCE BOLT, players will take the field in top-quality gear, with the excitement beginning with a Home Run Derby led by BRUCE BOLT's Bear Mayer.
This isn't just another ballgame — it's a celebration of sportsmanship and community. Baseball's biggest names will show young athletes what it truly means to be a professional both on and off the field. The lineup includes stars such as Jordan Davis, Tucker Wetmore, Russell Dickerson, Ashley Cooke, Maddox Batson, Mitchell Tenpenny, Tigirlily Gold, Chris Kirkpatrick, LANCO, Kevin Lawson, Shawn Johnson East, Andrew East, and several surprise country artists.
Featured appearances include:
Beyond the game, The Lucky Classic is about making a difference. Proceeds benefit the Burger Family Foundation, which supports families of children with disabilities through direct aid and community programs. The foundation was inspired by Jake and Ashlyn's daughter, Penelope, who was born with Down syndrome. Their mission is to promote inclusion and provide resources such as therapy, financial support, and community through ranch life experiences. Jake proudly wears number 21 to honor Trisomy 21 and those with Down syndrome, including Penelope, whose inspiring journey captured hearts after her successful heart surgery during spring training.
