Former Red Sox pitcher Mike Timlin plans to ride in this summer's Pan-Mass Challenge as a tribute to his late teammate Tim Wakefield, who passed away from brain cancer in 2023. The Pan-Mass Challenge is a significant fundraiser for cancer treatment, having raised over $1 billion since its inception in 1980. This year, nearly 7,000 participants aim to contribute to the projected $76 million for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, continuing the event's legacy of honoring those affected by cancer.
Timlin and his wife will ride in the Pan-Mass Challenge this summer to honor their late friend and teammate, Tim Wakefield, who passed away in 2023.
The Pan-Mass Challenge, established in 1980, raises funds for cancer treatment and research while also providing therapy for its riders, as noted by founder Billy Starr.
