Man Born With No Arms Throws Out First Pitch At Wrigley [Watch]

Tom Willis was born with no arms, but he isn’t letting that keep him from tossing a baseball around. Tom Willis first made himself known when he threw out the first pitch at Fenway Park last year and on Saturday he was at it again, just at a different venue. Tom Willis took to Wrigley Field to throw out the first pitch and he actually ended up throwing out the first, and second. Tom has to put the ball between his toes in order to send it from the mound to home plate, and unfortunately it slipped out on the first attempt. Tom insisted on trying it again, and he took full advantage of the second chance and got off a great pitch to the catcher. Tom has stated that he wants to throw out the first pitch at every MLB ballpark, and we think he has it in him to make it happen.
