Every August, Williamsport, Pennsylvania, is the mecca for Little League baseball players from around the world who dream of playing professional baseball. This year, those dreamers were once again treated to a taste of the real thing.

The second MLB Little League Classic showcases divisional rivals, as the New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies meet for a regular-season game at BB&T Ballpark at Historic Bowman Field on Sunday Night Baseball. But before that game, Little Leaguers had a chance to spend some time with the big leaguers who were also in Williamsport to play ball.
