Kay Adams Throws Ceremonial First Pitch at Cubs-Guardians Game

Kay Adams, known for her NFL analysis and as the host of the "Up & Adams" show, threw the ceremonial first pitch at Wrigley Field before the Cubs-Guardians game, wearing a Cubs-themed jersey from the movie "Rookie of the Year." Despite aiming for accuracy, her pitch veered near the first base line, requiring the Cubs mascot, Clark the Cub, to chase after it, but Adams took it in stride and shared a hug with the mascot afterward. She dedicated her pitch to legendary broadcaster Bob Uecker, who passed away earlier this year, and referenced similar poor first pitches by figures like Taylor Lewan and 50 Cent. Adams initially was scheduled to pitch the day before but was called away for an interview with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. This marked her second first pitch at Wrigley Field, and while she is a Cincinnati Bengals superfan, her choice of Cubs jersey reflected her Chicago roots. The Cubs went on to win the game 5-4, with Adams' participation adding a memorable and lighthearted moment for fans.
