PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Mo'ne Davis has made it to the Major League Baseball World Series.
While she is not a player yet, the 13-year-old pitching sensation of this past summer's Little League World Series, who also graced the cover of Sports Illustrated, is appearing throughout the World Series broadcast thanks to a Chevrolet commercial.

The 60 second ad features Mo'ne in her hometown of Philadelphia living her life - playing sports, hanging with friends and family, and eating Lazaro's Pizza.
The commercial is actually part of a documentary called 'Throwing Like Girl' directed by Spike Lee as part of Chevrolet's 'Anything is Possible' campaign.

"Mo'ne embodies the spirit at the heart of baseball - the spirit that drives an athlete to push further, to work harder, to see obstacles as merely challenges to be overcome," a statement on Chevrolet's website reads. "If "throwing like a girl" means a 70 MPH fastball, then maybe it's the coolest thing a kid can do."
The commercial features this shortened version of Mo'ne's open letter to America that also appears in the documentary:
Dear United States of America,
I'm 13 years old. This summer was the best summer of my young life.
Out of this whole journey the best part was having my family behind me, supporting me through everything I did.
I have a passion for sports.
Every day of the week, I'm playing soccer, basketball, or baseball.
I stand for girls who want play sports with the boys and to be a role model for people young and old.
I throw 70-miles-per-hour. That's throwing like a girl!
Sincerely,
Your daughter
Mo'ne Davis
Darren Rovell of ESPN reported Wednesday that Mo'ne's appearance in the commercial will not compromise her amateur status should she choose to play college sports.
"Mo'ne Davis may be paid for appearing in the Chevy commercial without impacting her NCAA eligibility," NCAA spokeswoman Emily James said in a statement.
Davis has expressed her desire to play college sports, but not baseball or softball.
"I want to go to the University of Connecticut and be the point guard on the basketball team," Davis told ESPN in August, while her team was still alive in the Little League World Series. "That's like my dream and then go into the WNBA. That's for [UConn women's coach] Geno [Auriemma]. Geno has to know."
Spike Lee said on Mike Francesa's WFAN radio show Tuesday that all of Davis' advertising money "goes into a trust fund" and that she had to take advantage now of her moment of marketing interest before she begins her NCAA eligibility process in ninth grade.
The 13-year-old became the first girl in Little League history to pitch a shutout.
