Former Royals players visit kids in hospital

Montgomery, Jim Eisenreich, Ed Hearn, Steve Jeltz, Brian McRae, Joe Randa and Shawn Sedlacek were in attendance, and the kids' parents knew about these former big leaguers. All the children knew was that they were here to dedicate a Starlight Fun Center mobile entertainment unit, continuing MLB's steady work behind the scenes at the World Series to make a difference.

This familiar community event happens at MLB jewel events year-round, and a similar event will take place on Thursday afternoon in New York when the Fall Classic shifts there. The Starlight Fun Center is equipped with the latest gaming system that rolls bedside in hospitals to provide entertainment and the healing power of play to pediatric patients.
