Jackie Robinson West honored at art gallery

 Chicago's Jackie Robinson West Little League team was honored over the weekend at a Chicago art gallery.

Two Illinois Senators led a celebration for the players.

They received reproductions from famed artist Annie Lee.

The piece depicts a young boy pitching in a sandlot baseball game.

Last month, the Little League International stripped the team of their national title after an investigation found some players on the team lived outside city limits and violated Little League rules.
