September marks the anniversary of one of the most inspirational moments in sports history: Jim Abbott’s no- hitter. In 1993 the world stopped and took notice of this talented one-handed pitcher. Now, 15 years later, Jim is partnering with the Department of Labor to raise awareness about the talents of people with disabilities. In Jim’s view, "It’s similar to how coaches looked at me when I was growing up, to see what I could do and not what I couldn’t."
