Striding to the pitcher’s mound on Tuesday night at Globe Life Field, Mavericks’ CEO Cynt Marshall wasn’t exactly trying to be like Nolan Ryan.
She just didn’t want to be like Carl Lewis. Or the Kardashian sisters.
Throwing out the first pitch at a major-league baseball game can be stressful. But Marshall came through with flying colors.
We’ve seen Lewis, blessed with Olympic gold medal talent, dribble a baseball off the mound. The Kardashians, with their mom, threw four balls in four different directions.
But Marshall, after putting in a practice session the day before, threw from the mound and one-hopped a pitch to the catcher, who was Texas Rangers’ third base coach Tony Beasley.
