Torri Hunter is the winner of the Branch Rickey Award in recognition of his work with kids in the community. Created by the Rotary Club of Denver in 1991, the Branch Rickey Award honors individuals in baseball who contribute to their communities and are strong role models for young people. ?It means a lot,? Hunter said. ?That?s something that you should do, whenever you can. My grandmother always instilled in me to treat people like you should be treated, and if you can do anything to make people?s lives better, you?ve got to do it. That?s part of your responsibility as a human being, and especially as a ballplayer.?
