The Mets have announced that Super Bowl champion and New York Giants Quarterback Eli Manning will throw out the first pitch before today’s game, which is slated for 1:10 p.m.
Manning will throw out the first pitch with his daughter Ava on behalf of Pampers in honor of all the “Most Valuable Dads” on Father’s Day.
Why is this important? I think we need to take a second to appreciate those dads who got us started with baseball. All I know is that, from the moment I was born, I was fed orange and blue. Despite the fact that my father was originally a Yankee fan, he eventually saw the light and started supporting the Mets.
Happy Father’s Day everyone, and LET’S GO METS!
