    Cotto threw the first Pitch in the Rays-Orioles game

    COTTO TO THROW OUT FIRST PITCH FOR TAMPA BAY RAYS

    By: Damon “Latinbox” Gonzalez

    Tampa, Florida – The WBO Welterweight champion Miguel Cotto 33-1, 27 KO’s looks to break the monotony in a very intensive training camp at the Fight Factory facilities in Tampa, Florida.

    It has been clear that Cotto is not taking anything lightly but on Monday, May 4th Cotto has been invited to Tropicana Field by the American League Champions Tampa Bay Rays to throw out the first pitch. Cotto very exited and honored to go out and have a good time with his team Cotto and meet the Tampa Bay Rays.

    [More:]

    Camp Notes George “Blaze” Walton 20-3, 12 KO’s will be getting his work in sparring this week with Cotto, The Brooklyn, New York Walton exited to work with Miguel in preparation for Joshua Clottey on June 13th.

      A ritual...a ton of people do that.

      Pac threw out the first pitch at a Giant game, it was on 24/7.

      Mark Sanchez threw out the first pitch of a Met game.

          Its simbolic you moron.

          Its the home team showing respect to that person who throws the first pitch.

          Meaning they now who Cotto is and they respect what he has done and what he is doing!!!!!

              He did it for the Mets already too. Ya know I never really got why Cotto never fought in Florida. NYC isnt the only place with a big PR population.

                  Buddy, there are 30 MLB teams, they play 162 games a year. That's 4860 first pitches thrown out per year. The Cubs sometimes have children throw out the first pitch...it is nothing special.

                    But the game was nothing special, they usually do it for a special game/Starting of a ALDS/World Series or a special day. Manny through the first pitch of the Giants game that day because it was Filipino Heritage day or something like that.
