Jim Abbott overcame the birth defect of having only one hand to become an amazing professional pitcher and ball player. Through stories anecdotes jokes some self deprecation and even failure and pain he shows that people can overcome perceived limitations and reach their dreams. Abbott was born without a right hand.
Abbott was the starting quarterback on his high school football team which went to the finals of the Michigan State championship. He showed enough promise as a pitcher to be drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays shortly after graduation but instead went to the University of Michigan on a baseball scholarship.
