Way off Topic: Baseball first pitches.
« on: July 07, 2013, 03:42:53 AM »
Now we all know, hopefully, that there's a ceremonial first pitch at a lot of professional baseball games.  Usually a celebrity, politician, hero, etc.  Here are three, one US and two from South Korea.

US one was at a Dodger game by actress Sarah Shahi who I've liked ever since I saw her on the short run TV series Life and now ecstatic that she's becoming a regular on Person of Interest.  The pitch was as good as most first pitches are for someone who isn't a pitcher.

These next two are from South Korea.  They certainly had some ... flair and played up the fans.  And yes I'm a guy so I found these two to be quite ... interesting.

I'm betting the comments to the pitcher in the dugout at the game where the 2nd pitch was made roughly translated as "Why can't you pitch like that?"
