NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — It was a dream come true Tuesday for some young Yankees fans, as prominent members of the team hosted several students — including a girl whose story about bullying went viral — as part of their annual HOPE Week initiative.
There was applause and high fives when some of the Bronx Bombers walked onto Heritage Field. Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, and a number of their teammates were at the park across from Yankee Stadium to play a spirited game of kickball.
Their teammates were a group of students from the Bronx who are members of No Bully, an organization working to end bullying — especially on social media.
