Bill Walton, NBA icon and two-time World Champion, was scheduled to throw out the first pitch during a Grateful Dead-themed night on Thursday at Petco Park. What came next was quite the sight and ended up delaying the start of the Colorado Rockies-San Diego Padres contest by four minutes.
Walton warmed up with Colorado manager Bud Black, actually threw two first pitches after his first attempt was nowhere near the plate and then took some time at home plate to meet Padres manager Andy Green and the umpires and give a few words of wisdom as well.
