Braves to give complimentary tickets to Hurricane Dorian evacuees

The Braves will distribute complimentary tickets to those who have been evacuated due to Hurricane Dorian to games against the Blue Jays on Tuesday and the Nationals on Thursday, the team announced.

The Braves will provide tickets, while supplies last, to those from coastal Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. Residents must show a valid driver’s license from the specific coastal zip codes that are under a mandatory evacuation. Tickets can only be claimed at the SunTrust Park ticket office windows beginning at noon Tuesday and Thursday.

In addition, the Braves will donate all proceeds from the 50/50 raffle to benefit the Red Cross efforts for the hurricane.
