The Sox’ miss at a World Series spot this year (sorry to remind you) means we won’t be seeing much of Youk for a while. At least not on the field, anyway. Tonight the first baseman and his fiancée, Enza Sambataro, are being honored at the third annual
Evening of Celebrating the Children at the
Fairmont Copley Plaza (138 St. James Avenue, Boston, 617.267.5300) for their efforts to bridge local and corporate charities and medical research programs dedicated to helping children through their organization,
Kevin Youkilis Hits for Kids. Beginning at 6 p.m., Christopher’s Haven — the urban oasis for young cancer patients receiving treatment at Mass General Hospital for Children — hosts an evening of food, music from Eye 2 Eye, and live and silent auctions. Tickets — available at www.christophershaven.org — include dinner and a chance to place your bid on trips to Martha’s Vineyard, four days at the Culinary Institute of America, and first-row seats at a Red Sox game. At $250 each, these event tickets are a hell of a lot cheaper than a World Series trip would’ve been.
