Yankees team up with A Moment of Magic, dress up to help kids with pediatric brain cancer

NEW YORK -- The Yankees swapped their iconic pinstripes for a set of equally recognizable capes and masks on Thursday morning, with Yankee Stadium transformed into a playground for superheroes and princesses as part of the team's annual HOPE Week.

A group of children with pediatric brain cancer were delighted in the left-field Audi Club, first by a group of volunteers from A Moment of Magic wearing Disney princess costumes, then by several Yankees in disguise: Jordan Montgomery, Michael Pineda, CC Sabathia, Luis Severino and Masahiro Tanaka, plus general manager Brian Cashman.
