Watch Stanley Cup champion Sidney Crosby throw out first pitch at Pirates game

Sidney Crosby is a generational talent on the ice, but he doesn’t have the best throwing arm.

We found out that much when he threw a water bottle on the ice during the Stanley Cup Final, and we were reminded once again on Tuesday night when the Penguins captain threw out the first pitch at the Pirates game.

The Pens brought the Stanley Cup to PNC Park for Tuesday’s contest against the Rockies. As the face of the franchise and this year’s Conn Smythe winner, Crosby has the honors of throwing out the ceremonial first pitch.
