DENVER, COLORADO: Tom Willis, who was born without arms, made history recently. The sports enthusiast, who wanted to pitch at every Major League Baseball stadium, achieved his aim by throwing the final first pitch at the Coors Field in Denver.

To spread awareness for his campaign called ‘No Arms, No Hands, No Problems’, Willis established a goal 15 years ago to throw out the first pitch at each of the 30 MLB stadiums in the country. He began his journey in 2008 at Petco Park in San Diego, California, and finished it on the night of September 22, 2022, at Coors Field in Denver, Colorado. Before taking off his gray slide-on sneakers and grabbing the baseball with his toes, Willis can be seen making his way to the center of the field in the video. He then threw the ball far into the air and directly into the mascot's glove, like a professional pitcher by lifting his free leg over his torso.
