Travis County vs. City of Austin: This time it’s baseball

Sometimes Austin and Travis County get into a little competition. But it’s not often you see them publicly fight. This Sunday, starting at 2pm, however, Travis County and the City of Austin will face off in a charity baseball game. All proceeds from the sale of tickets will be donated to the Sobering Center. The battle will be at The Long Time Austin. Tickets for the event can be found here. As the website for ActBlue explains, the Sobering Center, which was founded with cooperation between Austin and Travis County in 2018, gives members of the community “a safe place to recover from intoxication in lieu of jail or the emergency room and to then be referred to community-based resources as needed.”
