Throwing out the first pitch at a baseball game has become quite the tradition across the great United States of America. From presidents, gold medalists, actors, singers, and all other sorts of celebrities, the first pitch has become synonymous with America’s pastime.
On Friday night, a former Alabama football star was able to participate in the throwing of the first pitch, and I am not sure anyone has ever enjoyed their time on the mound as much as [autotag]Najee Harris[/autotag] did in Oakland.
In the video below you can see the Pittsburgh Steelers starting running back soak in the spotlight as he delivered a strike in front of his hometown crowd.
Take a look!

Harris’ infectious personality led to him being a fan-favorite in Tuscaloosa and that has certainly carried over into his NFL career!
Roll Tide Wire will continue to monitor Najee and all of the former Alabama football stars now in the NFL.Â
