Mets pitchers play wheelchair wiffle ball with Henry Viscardi students

I should start off with a disclaimer that I have a personal bias as my brother Christopher attended this amazing school. The Henry Viscardi School at The Viscardi Center is a school that offers parents of children with severe physical disabilities and who often require life-sustaining medical treatment throughout the day, a traditional educational setting option that provides rigorous academics and opportunities for personal growth and leadership development.

Sounds pretty amazing, right? It is.

On Wednesday, Jerry Blevins and Josh Smoker not only visited Viscardi students, but played a game of wheelchair wiffle ball with them.
