TORONTO -- It was a break from the everyday routine.
Before Wednesday night's game against the Phillies, several Blue Jays players, their wives and staff members took some time out of their morning to make the day special for children battling through their daily lives at SickKids Hospital in Toronto.
Not only was it a fantastic visit for the baseball fans at the hospital -- who got their only opportunity to see their athletic heroes up close and personal because they are confined to the building, their rooms or even their beds -- but it was an incredible opportunity for Mark and Jamie Buehrle, Kevin and Amanda Pillar, Liam and Kristi Hendriks, Brett Cecil and Drew Hutchison.
