On a starlit Wednesday evening at Dodger Stadium, Cadillac F1’s Sergio Pérez stepped up to the mound for the ceremonial first pitch, delivering a throw that – thankfully – made it all the way to the plate.
The evening had the flavor of a fiesta, with LA’s Mexican community in full voice as Checo – rocking a Dodger’s jersey emblazoned with his #11 race number – mingled with players, exchanged goodies with catcher Will Smith, and just soaked up the ballpark atmosphere.
Known for threading his car through tight street circuits, Pérez proved that even if pitching mechanics aren’t quite as precise as his apex speed, the crowd was always going to cheer him over the plate, proving that baseball and motorsport share the same heartbeat of passion.
