...goes out to catch the first pitch

??? I thought you were supposed to hit the ball when it is pitched. Don't most celebrities throw the first pitch? Was Rudy too embarrassed cuz he throws like a girl? Inquiring minds want to know. ;-)

You can either catch or hit he ball when it is pitched. Yes, many celebrities usually throw the first pitch. But Rudy is such a rabid baseball/Yankees fan that he was given the honor to catch the first ball thrown by the son of the great Roger Maris.
