As the biggest name in Ohio sports, it’s not surprising when the Cleveland Indians bring in any Ohio State representative to throw out the first pitch.
Recently Denzel Ward got the call, and on Sunday it was Buckeyes basketball head coach Jake Diebler’s turn. It’s a big deal to be asked, and as an Ohioan while leading the Ohio State hoops team, it made perfect sense for him to get the opportunity.
Now we all know that Diebler’s preferred sport is basketball, and like Ward, didn’t quite throw a strike. It wasn’t nearly as wild as the Cleveland Browns cornerback, as he one-hopped it to the plate.
We are glad that Diebler is a much better coach than he is at throwing a baseball.
