Put Keenan Briggs in next year's Home Run Derby. The kid mashes.
Briggs, an 11-year-old Kentucky native born without a left hand, went absolutely yard during his club's first game of their Little League All-Star Tournament earlier this month, propelling them to a 20-7 victory with his first-ever home run.
"It felt great," Briggs told the Bowling Green Daily News. "Once I hit it, I just knew it was going. It was amazing."
