Bruce, Indians Charities aid recovery in Texas

NEW YORK -- With a heavy rain still pounding Southeast Texas due to Hurricane Harvey and floodwaters rising in multiple towns, Nick Goody decided to check in on his aunt late Tuesday night. The response he received from his family in Beaumont, Texas, left the Indians reliever feeling helpless.

"Usually she's really happy, but I could tell something was wrong," Goody said. "I called her, and she said, 'Our house is flooding. It's me, the two dogs, Uncle Kevin and one of our friends. We're stuck.' There's nothing I can physically do."

Goody did the only thing he could come up with in that moment: He posted his aunt's address on Twitter in hope that someone could reach her house via boat.
