Mo'ne Davis charmed the USA in August with her hot pitching and steely demeanor on the mound while leading her Taney Dragons team from Philadelphia deep into the Little League World Series as one of just 18 girls to have competed in the event since 1947.

Davis' skills and story landed her on the cover of Sports Illustrated then, and now she's signing autographs for at least one of Major League Baseball's biggest stars.

Davis threw out the first pitch at Tuesday night's Dodgers game. More importantly though, she took some time to sign an autograph for a young admirer -- who just happened to be 23-year-old MLB superstar Yasiel Puig.
