Pair of Yankees Visit Young Cancer Patients
|
NEW YORK (AP) -- More than a dozen young cancer patients had a chance to meet some sports idols yesterday -- when Yankees teammates Bubba Crosby and Johnny Damon paid a visit to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
14-year-old Shannon O'Brien, from Staten Island, says her face turned red after she shook hands with the pair.
She said it was the first time she'd been that close to a famous sports player.
Crosby and Damon also signed baseballs for the children.
