Robin Ventura, John Danks relish Children's Hospital visit

Robin Ventura has been a regular visitor to the children’s hospital over the years.

That much was evident Thursday as the White Sox manager made the rounds at Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago.

In between talking to patients, several longtime doctors made their way over to exchange pleasantries with Ventura, who is in town for SoxFest this weekend.

Ventura offered his brand new White Sox hat to one doctor and spoke to many others throughout the hour-long visit. He also advised pitcher John Danks, who visited alongside his wife, country singer Ashley Monroe, that he needed to autograph his jersey and leave it for a patient.
