New Brooklyn Nets head coach Jason Kidd threw out the ceremonial first pitch during Game 2 of Wednesday’s double-header between the New York Yankees and Los Angles Dodgers. Kidd, accompanied by his son Chance, did a little better than Denard Robinson getting the ball to the plate.
The game also featured Dodgers announcer Vin Scully taking over the Los Angeles Dodgers twitter account.
Yasiel Puig has got a bunt single, a stolen base, and a home run. He is unbelievable. His talent is absolutely breathtaking. –#VinScully

I once played against George H. W. Bush. He played 1B for Yale, and I played CF for Fordham. We both went 0-for-3. #TrueStory –#VinScully

The #Dodgers must be inspired by Twitter — they've had four straight hits. They know they're on Twitter. –#VinScully

My very first game was an exhibition game in Vero and I did 2 innings. Thank goodness I wasn’t on the air when there was a triple play (1/2)

Red Barber did it so effortlessly that I was overwhelmed. I thought, “Oh my gosh, I’ll never be able to do that.” –#VinScully
