Yeah, getting to throw out the first pitch is pretty amazing. That is a CSB. Very cool.

The best advice I heard is don't get on the mound. You're used to throwing from a level surface to another level surface. The mound just complicates things. You're not used to throwing from one, you're not a MLB pitcher, stay off the friggin' mound.

Thanks. He was the VP of Operations for a company that sponsored MLB for a short time and they asked him if he would want to. He told them that he would as long as I got to go on the field and catch for him. Ken Griffey jr and Adam Dunn were warming up on the field when we walked out and I got to talk to them for a minute or so. They were playing the Brewers and also got to talk to Prince Fielder, who I was a pretty big fan of at the time. Pretty awesome deal.
