First Pitch: The ceremonial first pitch will be thrown by former Pirates right-hander and current broadcaster Bob Walk.
National Anthem: The National Anthem will be performed by Petrina McCutchen, Mother of Pirates five-time All-Star Andrew McCutchen.
At the lines: Today Pirates staff and players, including Pirates rookie Jung Ho Kang, will be introduced to the crowd in a pregame ceremony.
I have no problem with Walk, although there was a groundswell on Twitter for Kang to throw the first pitch, which I think would have been infinitely cooler. Still, I'm glad he'll be there.
