While the Giants are currently balancing a busy offseason, defensive captain Brian Burns is preparing to lead a different kind of squad — not onto the football field, but onto the diamond. On Saturday, May 30, 2026, Clover Stadium in Pomona will host an action-packed charity softball game pitting Giants legends against the current roster.

This year’s event, held in collaboration with Joe Ruback (better known as License Plate Guy), carries a profound personal weight for Burns: the proceeds benefit Hype 4 Life, an organization dedicated to supporting autistic children—a cause near and dear to the superstar pass rusher, whose own nephew lives with autism.
