Bucket List Item crossed off--threw out first pitch at Cubs/Dodgers game


Yesterday I got the rare opportunity to experience a thrill by throwing out the first pitch at the Cubs/Dodgers spring training game at Cubs Park in Mesa. My company has a promotion during Cubs game to promote shade screens to help our customers with energy efficiency (I work for Salt River Project, an utility company in the Phoenix area) and I got chosen to have the honors. It was a really cool thing to do, and while I couldn't get the video to upload, I threw a strike! (I also ran into Yu Darvish and Anthony Rizzo, geeked out a little...)
