Alex Poythress Throws out the Legends’ First Pitch

Alex Poythress joined the esteemed ranks of former Cats to open the Lexington Legends’ season, following Willie Cauley-Stein, Karl-Anthony Towns and Darius Miller to name just a few.

There have been some bad ones, but Poythress’ attempt was formidable. Unsatisfied with his first, he put in two more throws before topping out at a respectable 55 mph.

On a scale of 1-10, I’d give it a sold 7.
