Christian Heavner could have gone anywhere on earth.
But he was right where he wanted to be, on the field at Yankee Stadium, hanging out with the guys.
Brett Gardner and Chase Headley stopped by to say "hello." And so did Didi Gregorious and Adam Warren.

Christian sat there in the afternoon sun on the field and took it all in: the sounds and the love.
Cerebral palsy, it seems, limits Christian's mobility, but not his gratitude.
