LOS ANGELES -- Approximately 80 Los Angeles-area kids congregated behind the Dodgers' bullpen in left field Tuesday morning, awaiting a surprise event.
The youth baseball and softball players certainly got more than they bargained for, being treated to a Wiffle ball game in the Dodger Stadium outfield, with appearances from Cody Bellinger, Enrique Hernandez and several former Dodgers.
The event was put on by the team and the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation to support MLB's Play Ball initiative.

"You see, it's the same game -- everyone wants to have fun with it," said Bellinger, while pointing to an ongoing Wiffle ball game.
