On March 31, Hailey Dawson will throw out the first pitch at Petco Park for the San Diego Padres with her UNLV-created 3D printed hand.
Hailey Dawson of Las Vegas is 7 years old, a huge baseball fan, and has made it a goal to throw out the ceremonial first pitch at all 30 MLB stadiums.
A girl with a 3D-printed hand threw out the first pitch Saturday in game 3 of the Padres Opening Day series against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Thursday marks Opening Day for Major League Baseball.
Hailey Dawson has opened up professional sporting events before, but never in her hometown.
Hailey Dawson is already a veteran of tossing the ceremonial first pitch at the ripe old age of seven. She’s got two Major League games under her belt and is about to add a third, with her biggest audience yet, as she kicks off Game 4 of the World Series in Houston.
Late in the afternoon in early October, the Dawson family gathered to watch son Zach’s baseball game.
