This was Dakarai Moore II's chance to shine. A moment he would never forget.
With thousands of people at Comerica Park for Thursday's Tigers-Angels game, the inspirational 13-year-old from Detroit seized the moment, tossing a perfect "ceremonial" first pitch to the Tigers' Matthew Boyd at home plate.
"I felt good," said Moore, proudly showing off his game ball signed by Boyd.
