The UNLV Rebels and Las Vegas will have a presence Saturday night at Wrigley Field in Game 4 of the World Series between the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians.
Greg Maddux, a native Las Vegan, current UNLV volunteer assistant coach and Baseball Hall of Famer, will throw out the ceremonial first pitch before the game, UNLV announced Friday.
Maddux, who grew up in Las Vegas and graduated from Valley High School, was drafted by the Cubs in 1984, and played nine seasons (1986-92 and 2004-05) with the Chicago team. He made his debut with the Cubs on Sept.
