Philadelphia Phillies catcher J. T. Realmuto and his wife Lexi Realmuto have made a move to raise awareness about the growing issue of Online Sexual Exploitation of Children in the Philippines.

They raised it at an important time as the Philippines is known worldwide as the No. 1 hotspot for it and there has been an increase in reported cases where children are being taken advantage of on the internet.

On Wednesday, Lexi took to her Instagram account and posted about the important issue. The post included a picture of her and her husband along with their two daughters, Gracie Lane and Willa Mae.
