First pitch possibilities idea

[BigOrangeVol4Life]

The lady throwing out the first pitch got me thinking… what if in the future different celebrities and other famous people could be created, placed in the vault and given a name that the announcers are able to pronounce during the first pitch he or she throws out?

You could create the president for the Nationals to have throw out their first pitch. You could have Dikembe Mutombo throw out the first pitch for the Braves. How about a celebrity musician or actor with another team who is from there or a big fan of the team? You could have the prime minister of Canada perform the ceremony for the Blue Jays. How about Lamar Jackson for the Orioles and John Elway for the Rockies? Assign abilities too where the pitch may hit the glove, end up the the 7th row, hit the dirt halfway to third base, etc. lol

Have a jersey with their name on it and have the catcher and others give them a fist bump, pat on the back, or handshake afterward with a roar from the crowd.

It would be simple but entertaining and unpredictable.

Re: First pitch possibilities idea

they should get like 10 celebrities for each city, and then they should let it be known to other celebrities that like $20,000 will get you into the Show as a first pitch celeb, raise some monies to help fund franchise. it could be a sort of status symbol for celebs. ya know, they're desperate insecure people, it's all about ''me me me! please, look at me! I am so pretty! love me! want me!''
oh, sorry.

also, I thought this was going to be a strategery talk of what opening salvo to the first pitch of each batter lol high & tight fastballs, low & away change-ups lol

They could always create ridiculous fake celebrities instead. They wouldn't have to spend any money and it could be a lot more entertaining .

ohh, since we don't have dev's in the MiLB roster anymore, Ramone & Co. could toss out the opening pitches

Well they do have all these legends in the game. Imagine Cal Ripken tossing out opening pitch.

Link it to a Kim Kardashian like app where you can equip & dress your star as you want it. All that for a little $4.99 extra per pitch

i had a dude throwing the first pitch. Was afraid it was always the same cutscene over and over.

They seem to be peoples from the crowd. If they cycle from all of them, it's a cute addition.

Was it only in the spring training game or during the regular season?

yeah, Bremser was really on to something with using legends, takes BigOrange's idea to a wnole 'nother level. also, if your manager retires, he could come back the next year to throw out a first pitch

All they need is a few generic guy and girl bodies with randomized hair style and color options, skin tones and outfits. Some can wear the home team jerseys and some not. That would create quite the variety.

I want 50cent throwing out my first pitch. I’ll have to adjust my pitch control sliders first though.

I want Chris Rock to come throw out Atlanta's first pitch. but instead of catcher D'arnaud to catch it, I want closer Will Smith on the receiving end of what Rock's throwing
