Tina Jackson made a sign that read chemo, check. Go to a Braves game, check. Meet Dansby... here's what happened next.

ATLANTA — We are used to seeing Dansby Swanson make flashy plays on the field but it's what he did off of it that's catching our attention.

A fan who just completed chemotherapy came to a home game last week, hoping to meet the shortstop.

Tina Jackson said she felt a little weird about making the sign because she didn't want to use her illness to get her anything special but her friends finally convinced her to do it.
