A charity baseball game was held Saturday in honor of Greenlawn teenager Corey Phelan.
Phelan, a Philadelphia Phillies minor leaguer, died last year after a battle with non-Hodgkins Lymphoma at the age of 20. 
On Saturday, Harborfields High School played Cold Spring Harbor in his honor.
Phelan's parents say they created "Corey's Promise," an organization that helps families deal with the financial hardships during their child's cancer, for him.
The game was a part of several fundraisers being held in Corey's honor in the coming summer months.
