    Extractions: The road to "the show" In 1996, former wolverine Pitcher Jim Abbott '89 had the worst year of his life as an athlete. Whatever he'd used to get big hitters out since his first start as a rookie with the Anaheim in 1989 had deserted him. He ended the year with a record of 2 wins and 18 losses, including an 11-game losing streak. This was the low point in what had been until then an extraordinary life on and off the field. Abbott's story is inspiring. This Flint, Michigan, native, born without a right hand had a phenomenal amateur career from his football quarterbacking and baseball stardom in high school, on to his three years at Michigan from 1986-88, when he led the team to regular-season Big Ten championships each year. In 1987 he led Team USA to the silver medal in the Pan American games after carrying the US flag for the opening ceremonies in lndianapolis. At the 1988 Seoul Olympics, he pitched the gold medal-winning game against Japan. The Sox traded Abbott back to the Angels during the '95 season. He pitched well and looked forward to the approaching season, but in '96 his confidence and strong left arm failed him. He was sent to the bullpen as a reliever late in the season and then, briefly, to a minor league teameach a first for Abbott as a pro. Although he returned for spring training with the Angels in 1997, the team released him before opening day. An interview with Abbott This Issue's Index This Issue's Front Page CURRENT Michigan Today

    Extractions: Jim Abbott was born without a right hand, but was able to put together an effective career as a major league pitcher. His list of accomplishments included a no-hitter and 87 wins. Jim Abbott pitched a no-hitter on Sept. 4, 1992, against the Cleveland Indians. He won 87 games in his career. Abbott had a stand-out career with the University of Michigan and was the first baseball player to win the Sullivan Award, an honor given to the nation's top amateur athlete. In 1988, he was a member of the U.S. baseball team that captured the Gold Medal in the Olympics.The Angels drafted him in the first round of the 1988 amateur draft and moved him straight to the major league level. He responded by winning 12 games as a rookie in 1989. He followed that season up with a 10-14 effort, but was an 18-game winner in 1991. In 1992, he posted a 2.77 ERA, but lack of support left Jim Abbott with an unimpressive 7-15 record.In 1993, the New York Yankees sent J.T. Snow and 2 minor league pitchers to the Angels for Abbott.

    http://www.hwwilson.com/currentbio/baseball.html
    
    Extractions: Sep. 19, 1967- Baseball player. Jim Abbott is one of an elite group of major-league pitchers to have thrown a no-hitter, a feat he accomplished while he was a New York Yankee in 1993. Abbott, who began the 1995 season as a member of the Chicago White Sox and ended it as a California Angel, is also among the few hurlers whose fastballs have been clocked at over ninety miles an hour. What makes his success all the more remarkable is the fact that he plays ball without a right hand. He was born with a rounded stub at the end of his right arm, with one small, finger-like protrusion where his right hand should be. He pitches with his left hand, with the palm of his glove resting on the stub. After each pitch, he quickly switches the glove to his left hand, so that he can catch or field balls thrown or hit back. Prior to becoming a major-league pitcher, Abbott was an Olympic gold medalist, a collegiate baseball all-star, and a high-school standout in three sports. Abbott's athletic achievements have amazed sports fans and inspired countless numbers of Americans with disabilities, who flock to ballparks to see him pitch. He receives hundreds of letters a week, many of them from handicapped children and their parents, and he tries to answer as many as he can, even though he has never considered himself to be disabled. "I just don't think all of this about me playing with one hand is as big an issue as everyone wants to make it," he told Ira Berkow of the New York Times (December 25, 1992). "I don't try to run from the attention about it; I just accept it." Abbott maintains that the toughest thing he faces is not his disability but major-league hitters. The feeling is apparently mutual. "He's got the hand that counts," Larry Sheets of the Baltimore Orioles told a reporter for the Washington Post (April 26, 1989) after facing Abbott's power pitching for the first time.
