He pitched for 10 seasons, primarily for the California Angels, and also played for the New York Yankees, Chicago White Sox, and Milwaukee Brewers. Abbott relied on a modified glove that he could quickly transfer from his left hand after throwing a pitch. He is celebrated not only for his athletic ability but also for his perseverance and positive attitude, serving as an inspiration to many. His career highlight includes pitching a no-hitter for the Yankees in 1993.
