First Pitch Winner, Jes Pureza

"Jes is a long-time Burn and Pediatric Trauma Nurse at Harborview Medical Center, and provides excellent care to some of the sickest patients we with burns and traumatic injuries. She is a preceptor, a charge nurse, and a well-known resource. She also puts together the yearly unit outing to the Mariner's Nurses' Night game every May! She has always been a proud PNW nurse and sports fan!"

First Catch, Andrew Jensen

"Andy has been at Harborview Medical Center for 23 and a half years. He has worked as a Rapid Response Nurse for 17 years, responding to the most critical patients in our hospital. He has saved countless lives in every department in the hospital, too many to count. He is also a lifelong Mariners fan who goes to Spring Training, buys a Flex Pass, and goes to every event planned for the Mariners every year. His support for nursing and our patients cannot be rivaled. The commitment to our community that he has is only rivaled by his commitment to the Mariners. He would be someone that would truly appreciate everything about this experience while also deserving it more than anyone I can think of. "

Nurses Honored on the Field! 

TWO nurses were honored on the field during the pregame ceremony. The nurse with the most votes threw the first pitch and the first-runner up was the catcher.  Each winner received 2 game tickets, Clove shoes, a prize bundle from Nuwest, and other prizes! 

Here are the two nurses who were chosen by an online vote: 

First Pitch Winner, Alison Waters: Alison is an aesthetic nurse injector who is passionate about aesthetics and promoting healthy aging while also helping to give confidence to her patients through a natural approach. 

Catcher, Kelli Collins: Kelli has been a nurse for just 5 years but in that time she has excelled. She is originally from Spokane and currently lives in Tacoma working as an ER nurse at Tacoma General Hospital. Kelli graduated from University of Idaho with a degree in Exercise Physiology and worked as an exercise specialist at Valley Medical Center in Renton for several years. After living and working in Germany for a year, she returned to North Carolina to be with her fiancé who had just returned from deployment overseas. It was here she pursued her dream of becoming a nurse. After working for a year her now husband was deployed again and so unsure of her future and where she would be living permanently, she decided to take a traveling assignment and ended up going to Reno, Nevada, Tacoma, Washington, Sacramento, California and Bellingham, Washington before permanently settling down in Tacoma when her husband returned from deployment. I am so proud of her for being a confident, caring and loving nurse. Not many people can travel with only one years experience. She has had to live with a military spouse who has been endlessly had to leave home for various deployments. She has 2 dogs that she adores and they have been her constant companions traveling everywhere she goes. I think she would be a great person to throw out the first pitch, especially because she constantly throws balls for her dogs!
