A number of baseball teams are coming together to help make a seven year old girl with a 3D printed hand’s dreams come true.
Hailey Dawson, from Las Vegas, Nevada, wants to break the world record for the number of ceremonial first pitches at every Major League Baseball stadium.
And the Major League Baseball teams are all dying to have Hailey on the field.
The seven year old has something called Poland Syndrome, a birth defect which caused her to be born with three fingers missing on her right hand.
She wears a prosthetic hand the University of Las Vegas engineering department designed in 2014, which they named the Flexy Hand 2.
And she’s already gotten a good start on her dream, having thrown out the opening pitch for the Washington Nationals and the Baltimore Orioles.
The young girl went viral this week after Bleacher Report posted a video on Twitter about her.
