E:60 delivers a powerful profile of baseball icon Jim Abbott. The episode, The Life and Legacy of Jim Abbott, weaves the story of Abbott’s extraordinary life and career around a deep dive into his memorable no-hitter on September 4, 1993. Born without a right hand, Abbott’s rise to prominence as a pitcher was nothing short of remarkable. He was named America’s best amateur athlete in 1987 while at the University of Michigan and went on to pitch the gold medal-winning game for the U.S. at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul. Drafted by the California Angels in the first round, Abbott’s journey through professional baseball is a study in perseverance.
