University of Minnesota-Crookston pitcher Parker Hanson is shown along the third base line after fielding a bunt during a college baseball game against Minnesota State in St. Cloud, Minn., Wednesday, May 10, 2017.

Hanson was born without a left hand, but found a way to adapt at a young age so he could pitch, field, bat and play the game he loved. (AP Photo/Jeff Baenen)
