Baseball legend Hank Aaron will be back in his home state later this month to do two fundraisers for Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Vivian Davis Figures.
Figures said the former Atlanta Braves slugger will do fundraising receptions June 26 in Huntsville and June 27 in Birmingham.
Figures said she became friends with the Mobile native when she served on the Mobile City Council and got it to name Mobile's Double A baseball stadium in honor of the hometown hero.
Tickets for the fundraisers are $250, but larger donations will get participants a signed photo or a signed baseball.
Figures faces Republican incumbent Jeff Sessions in the general election Nov. 4.
