Christian Duke and Tommy Meyer paid a visit to Children’s Mercy Hospital in Overland Park, Kan. on Wednesday afternoon. Their monthly trips to Children’s Mercy Hospital – which was recently ranked among the top pediatric hospitals in the country – take them around the hospital visiting a variety of patients.

“I feel like their days are pretty long. I'm sure it gets old after a while. It's nice to break up their day, even for five or 10 minutes. Hopefully we can have a positive impact on their experience in the hospital,” Meyer said.

One girl, Alexa, was quite excited to have the players in her room.
