Denver-based Furniture Row Racing’s Martin Truex Jr. was at Coors Field Wednesday to throw out the first pitch before the Rockies game against The Metropolitans of New York.
The 2017 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series champion not only got to throw out the first pitch but was given a tour of Coors Field, saw the Wall of Fame and even got to meet former post columnist Benjamin Hochman’s favorite dinosaur, Dinger.
Truex is having another fine season for FRR as he currently sits in sixth place in the NASCAR Monster Energy Cup standings. With two wins, nine top-fives in 15 starts he appears primed to make a run at defending his title this season.
Take a look at the first pitch from Truex below, Dinger had it as a strike. We might have to take a second look at the Subaru Strike Zone for confirmation though.
Nicely done, Champ! ⚾️
