Flight 1549′s First Officer Jeff Skiles will throw out the first pitch at the Brewers’ home opening April 10th against our Cubbies. He couldn’t ask for a better market.
Game starts at 3:05 CST and will be carried on FSN and MLB.TV.
Brewers Executive VP of Business Operations Rick Schlesinger: Jeff Skiles is a great representative of the State of Wisconsin. We are honored to have Jeff throw out the first pitch on Opening Day.
I get the feeling he’s going to enjoy the game more than he did the media blitz. He’s a funny guy – watch his Letterman interview. Wonder who he bumped.
