Ben Franklin Bridge lights up in honor of 12-year-old baseball player critically hurt before game

MAPLE SHADE, N.J. (WPVI) -- The Ben Franklin Bridge lit up blue lights Wednesday night in honor of Xavier Taylor.

He is the 12-year-old player from Maple Shade Youth Baseball, who was hit in the neck by an errant throw last week.

Xavier is in the ICU on a ventilator and in critical condition.

His dad told Action News that Phillies catcher Garrett Stubbs visited Xavier in the hospital, as the community continues to rally support for the family.
