Who Wants to Throw Out First Pitch at a Cardinals Game?

The Rally St. Louis team offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Cardinals fans: Throwing out the first pitch at a game in front of thousands at Busch Stadium.

Unless you've had your head buried in the sand, you've probably hear about Rally Saint Louis since it launched in November of 2012.

It's the St. Louis online platform where anyone can submit ideas to improve the region, allowing people of all walks to help fund those ideas and helping those projects come to fruition.  Rally STL has already funded two projects that are focused on improving greater St. Louis in the eyes of residents as well as those outside of the region. 

Now the Rally team is offering what many St. Louis Cardinals fans would consider a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: Throwing out the first pitch at a Cardinals game in front of thousands at Busch Stadium.

On Sunday afternoon May 19, when the Cards play the Milwaukee Brewers, it will also be Rally Saint Louis Day at Busch Stadium. The Rally STL team will be giving out free tees donated by CafePress in Ford Plaza located behind the bleacher seats in the outfield.

Part of the day’s celebration will include a representative Rally STL throwing out the first pitch of the game. But the question for the folks at Rally STL is, “Who should do it?” Who deserves to live the dream of tossing out the first ball at a Cards game?
