First Pitch
The Rays can't think of anyone to throw out the first pitch at their first post-season game. Deadspin has a great suggestion:
Suggestions so far have been Dick Vitale, Gen. David Petraeus or Ryder Cup captain Paul Azinger. How about Victor Zambrano? I'd say his contribution to the team's success is pretty significant.
They should probably hold off on Victor. If they face the Mets in the World Series, he'll be the perfect choice.
Does he really want to be honored as the stiff the team traded to get an ace?
Gene Lasker would be a nice touch.
How about the Greatest Ray of All Time... Wade Boggs?
