Brooklyn, NY – A team from the Hatzolah Jewish volunteer ambulance corps took on NYPD officers in a charity softball game at KeySpan Park in Brooklyn.
The Hatzolah and NYPD Highway 2 squads met to raise funds for Officer Scot Abrams, a highway cop who has been in a wheelchair since a motorcycle crash last year.

Hatzolah manager Moishe Wulliger said his team came out because they work closely with the cops.
"We usually meet only during tough [emergency] calls," he said. "So it's nice to come here and just play a game."
"Highway 2's going to win," Abrams told the crowd before the game.
He then cheered his team on to a 6-5 victory.
"We'll get 'em next year," vowed Hatzolah's Raphael Treitel. [NY Post]
I was at the game. i want to say besides that it was a nice outting for the kids, its was a true kiddiush hashem.
mabye yiden from the nypd you are so far gone what does concerts have to do with this why is it Assur to play with other people go your frum crum way and ask your rabbi
For Hatzoloh to play with the NYPD is indeed a MITZVAH. LOOK for the latest mitzva # 614
Explain this logic to me . The Rabbis say that its Assur to go to a concert even if there are no women, yet its fine and dandy for HATZOLOH to go play sports with the GOYIM from NYPD.
you people are soooooooooooooo far gone.
