Don't forget: the annual First Pitch Celebration for MU Baseball is this coming Saturday, February 7th.
The 5th annual First Pitch Celebration is a reception for all MU Baseball fans and former players to gather and celebrate over 100 years of Missouri Baseball, and to celebrate the beginning of the 2009 season.
The fifth annual First Pitch Celebration is a reception with a buffet that will include hors d’oeuvres, beverages for young and old. Introductions will be made of past and present players. Tim Jamieson will take a look ahead at the 2009 season. A silent auction will be held, featuring prestigious professional and collegiate items. Luke Cassis usually has a video montage prepared of highlights from the 2008 season.
Plus there will be a special guest speaker.
This is a great opportunity to meet and talk to current players and coaches and others associated with the team. There will be former players from recent teams and from teams farther back in Tiger history, all the way back to the teams of the 30s and 40s. It's great fun to sit and ask the "old-timers" to tell stories about John "Hi" Simmons and playing in the Big Seven conference.
