Buffalo Bills cornerback Christian Benford will throw out the ceremonial first pitch on May 16 before the Buffalo Bisons play against the Worcester Red Sox at Sahlen Field.

Benford will celebrate the release of his children’s book, "Stylish Safari: The Adventures of You," a book about confidence and self-expression. There will be giveaways of signed copies of the book for those in attendance as well.

"Stylish Safari: The Adventures of You" is available in hardcover, softcover and coloring book editions at Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble and Books-A-Million.

The 24-year-old Benford recently signed a four-year, $76 million contract extension, which runs through the 2029 season. He was a sixth-round pick of the Bills in the 2022 NFL Draft out of Villanova.

Last season, Benford started 14 games and had 10 passes defended, two forced fumbles, two interceptions and 64 total tackles. For his career, he has 34 regular-season starts in three seasons, five interceptions, 25 passes defensed and four forced fumbles.
