Cardinals among MLB teams inviting girl to throw out first pitch with 3-D printed hand

A 7-year-old girl has captured the attention of several MLB teams, including the Cardinals.

Hailey Dawson has a 3-D printed hand and she wants to set a record for throwing out the most first pitches.

According to Dawson’s Instagram, she was born with a rare condition called Poland Syndrome, which caused her hand to form with only three fingers. A “robohand” was built for her on a 3-D printer at UNLV. In August of 2015, she threw out the first pitch for the Baltimore Orioles.

Bleacher Report, shared a video and tweeted out “7-year-old Hailey Dawson wants to throw out the first pitch at every MLB ballpark with her 3-D printed hand.”

Fowler tweeted back, “Hey Hailey! Remember me? We met at the mall in Vegas! Come see me in STL! Let's make it happen @Cardinals”

Shortly after, the Cardinals invited Hailey to come throw out the first pitch during the 2018 season.

Good news #STLCards fans, Hailey will be joining us for a first pitch during the 2018 season!
