Thomas Ian Nicholas, who became famous at a young age for starring in the baseball movie "Rookie of the Year" threw out the first pitch on Wednesday afternoon as the Chicago Cubs hosted the Minnesota Twins at Wrigley Field.Rivalry on. #Cubs had HenryRowengartner throw out the first pitch knowing a ton of #Twins fans are in the crowd who clearly prefer 'Little Big League.
As for "Little Big League," this one is about a kid who inherits the Minnesota Twins from his grandfather, who owns the team. He becomes the manager, navigating the big egoes of major leaugers to help lead the Twins back to prominence as well. Along with 'The Sandlot," these three movies make up the trilogy of kid's baseball movies of the 1990s and are favorites for baseball fans who grew up in that time.
When the Cubs go to Minnesota next, I guess we'll have to see if the Twins can bring out the actor who played Bill Heywood.Brady Farkas is a baseball writer for Fastball on Sports Illustrated/FanNation and the host of 'The Payoff Pitch' podcast which can be found on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
