The Baltimore Ravens have seen plenty of their current and former players have the honor of throwing out the first pitch at a Baltimore Orioles game. From Ed Reed to Lamar Jackson to Rashod Bateman and others, plenty of Baltimore greats as well as rookies have kicked off a baseball game in style at the historic Camden Yards.
On Tuesday evening, former Ravens’ offensive lineman Jonathan Ogden took the mound to throw out the first pitch before a game between the Orioles and the Toronto Blue Jays. Ogden was all smiles after delivering his pitch.
The Ravens’ official Twitter account responded to the post, calling Ogden a very appropriate title.
Both Baltimore teams have a very good relationship with each other, as is evidenced by the crossover events that they do, the interaction between their social accounts, the support that they give one another and more. The tradition of Ravens players throwing the first pitch at Orioles games is a longstanding one, and Ogden is the latest of many Baltimore football players who have stood in front of the Camden Yards crowd and delivered a ball to home plate.
