Ludacris Takes the Mound with Style
The highlight of the evening was Ludacris’s ceremonial first pitch against the Colorado Rockies. In a nod to his iconic “Get Back” music video, Ludacris donned prosthetic Popeye-sized muscles, oversized white Nike Air Force 1s, and a Braves jersey, delivering his pitch with flair and a warning to the Rockies to “get back” unless they were looking for trouble from Atlanta.
