NEW YORK -- One special karate star got a huge opportunity Tuesday.
CBS New York first introduced you to 13-year-old Armaan Mohammed in June.
He had life-changing surgery at Cohen Children's Medical Center to cure his severe scoliosis.
Armaan had said it was his dream to meet his idol, the original "Karate Kid," Ralph Macchio.
The Mets gave Armaan that chance Tuesday.
He threw out the first pitch at Citi Field with Macchio behind the plate.
