A Pitch for Life: The Ultimate Save
Nearly two years ago, former Auburn pitcher Steven Register was given just months to live. Stage 4 cancer had pushed him to the brink—until a miracle arrived from his past.

Kristin Johnston, a high school classmate from 21 years ago, stepped up when it mattered most. She donated 70% of her liver to save Steven’s life. Today, both are thriving! Kristin is back in the gym, and Steven is officially cancer-free.

A Win for Both Teams:
The Sacrifice: A selfless gift that regenerated in both bodies.
The Bond: Two families, once just classmates, are now lifelong friends.
The Rivalry: They cheered for opposing teams at the Auburn-Georgia game, but mostly, they cheered for each other.

This isn’t just a survival story; it’s a testament to the power of human connection. The ultimate “Save” didn’t happen on the mound—it happened in the heart.
