While most 8-year-olds dream to throw a baseball on a professional field, this boy's ceremonial first pitch is a major feat considering that just one year ago, he had no hands at all.

The impressive endeavor follows rigorous hand therapy at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, where he received his double hand transplant in July of last year.

"I don't know many adults that can handle half of his life on a day-to-day basis," his mother said in a previous interview with the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

The procedure was conducted by 40 doctors and nurses in a surgery that lasted 10 hours.

Zion had his hands and feet amputated following a life-threatening infection when he was only 2 years old.

"I don't know what a child hand looks like," he explained in a video interview with The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

He wears prosthetic legs, and eventually figured out how to do day to day activities like write, eat and play video games, but before the transplant, Zion has always told doctors that he dreams of one day throwing a football, a press release reported.

For now, Zion can take pride in throwing a baseball.
