Katie Ledecky Threw First Pitch, Bryce Harper Held Her Medals
By Ty Duffy
U.S. Olympian Katie Ledecky threw out the first pitch at a Washington Nationals game. Bryce Harper played the role of gentleman, holding all of her medals from Rio.
We can’t find video evidence of Michael Phelps throwing out a first pitch. Ditto for Ryan Lochte. Ledecky getting it over the plate on the first attempt was better than Carl Lewis’ effort.
McKayla Maroney remains the gold standard for celebrity Olympian first pitches for stepping back to throw from the rubber and working in gymnastics.
