MINOR LEAGUER HICKLEN USING HIS POWER TO HELP COMMUNITY

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Nashville Sounds outfielder Brewer Hicklen has always felt a tie to his hometown of Huntsville, Ala.

The 28-year-old has returned home nearly every offseason since the Royals drafted him in 2017 to hold a youth camp that has reached an attendance of 150. Heading into the 2024 season, he wanted to step up his charitable giving by starting a fundraiser for The Bullpen Foundation, a North Alabama-based organization benefiting youth sports participation.
