The Westhill High School softball team's season ended with a loss in the state playoffs, but Tuesday the team got a chance to take the field again at Yankee Stadium.
Yankees General Manager Brian Cashman says he read about the girls' loss on a technicality last month and was moved enough to invite them to meet the Bombers and watch a batting practice.
The girls say one of the most exciting parts of the trip was joining the players on the field during the national anthem.
