Ahead of Tuesday’s game, University of New Mexico football coach Danny Gonzales fired a strike for the ceremonial first pitch.
The third-year Lobos coach threw the pitch while most of his team — short a dozen or so players — stood behind him cheering him on. They all seem impressed with their coach’s pitch.
Catching the pitch was former UNM walk-on Josh Woisin, a La Cueva graduate who earned a scholarship from Gonzales last year as a senior. Woisin now works in sales and marketing in the Isotopes front office.
