According to the Courier-Journal, Weaver was born with six functioning fingers on his hand. Kentucky had a special glove made for him this season so he wouldn’t be uncomfortable.
Weaver’s photo went viral ahead of the pivotal SEC matchup but one of the best reactions came from former New York Yankees pitcher Jim Abbott.
Abbott, who was born without a right hand, tweeted: "No fair."
Abbott played for five teams, including the Yankees from 1993 to 1994. He threw a no-hitter with New York in 1993. He also had two hits in 21 at-bats as a major leaguer as well. He won a gold medal in the 1988 Olympic Games.
