April 1 (UPI) -- Texas Rangers outfielder Shin-Soo Choo agreed to donate $1,000 to each minor league player in the organization, the team announced Wednesday.
Choo's donation will provide support to about 200 players who were impacted by MLB's temporary shutdown due to the coronavirus pandemic. The veteran player told reporters on a conference call Wednesday that he remembers the financial struggles when he played in the minors.
