Naomi Osaka took part in Japan night festivities at Dodger Stadium on Wednesday night in Los Angelies, and the World No.2 acquitted herself nicely when it was time to throw out the ceremonial pitch before tonight’s Dodger-Angels game at Chavez Ravine.Osaka met with Japanese MLB stars Shohei Ohtani and Kenta Maeda before the game and it was Maeda who crouched behind the plate to receive her pitch.
True to form, Osaka delivered an ace. Or should we say strike?“It was very nerve-wracking, I’m not gonna lie,” Osaka said after delivering her pitch. “Honestly I’ve never really thrown a baseball … I was just really hoping that I wasn’t going to end up on Sportcenter for like Top 10 worst fails.”
