First Pitch Perfect: The Journey To The Majors (Step 8: Single A)
So last Wednesday, Frank the Tank flew to Cleveland to live out my dream and throw a Ceremonial First Pitch at Jacob's Field. Gave him a jersey, posted him on all their socials, interviewed him etc. Meanwhile, I was driving to Wisconsin to throw one out at the Beloit Sky Carp game. And don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. They gave me all-you-can-eat chicken fingers, so who was the real winner that night?
Anyways, this is how it went down:
Right down the fucking cock. And now we're looking for a AA team.
Look, I know people are going to say I'm getting cucked by all of the other employees at this company throwing First Pitches, but I stand by that my journey is different than setting up one in the Major Leagues. I remember the initial trip to fucking Homewood, Illinois to place a ball on a Tee in front of like 9 people. Now we're heading to a AA game? Started from the bottom now we're here. Can't wait til we make it to the Majors…..although it kinda sucks the Boss Man has decided first pitches are lame now.
