Can't Predict Baseball: Jim Abbott Gets A Hit


On this day in 1999 the unthinkable happened when the Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jim Abbott picked up his first career base hit. Abbott was born without a right hand and still got his first hit in his 11 year career. Abbott was well known for his time with the California Angels and the New York Yankees and didn't bat due to the designated hitter. Abbott also threw a no hitter with one hand proving that anything is possible if you just put your mind to it. Stay inspired Yankees family.
