Spunky kid with Poland Syndrome will throw out the first pitch in the World Series.

Dawson was born with Poland syndrome and is missing three fingers on her right hand, which is also her throwing hand. By using a robotic hand made with a 3-D printer, she has thrown out the ceremonial first pitch for several MLB teams, including the Washington Nationals, Baltimore Orioles, New York Mets, Milwaukee Brewers, Seattle Mariners, Oakland A’s, Minnesota Twins and Detroit Tigers.

Random fact, Ted Danson of the hit TV show Cheers has Poland Syndrome and was bullied for it.
