WWE Hall of Famer and lifelong Houston resident Booker T got to throw out the first pitch for the Astros on Tuesday, because the Astros KNOW HOW TO PLEASE THEIR FANS. Just not with the actual baseball part, I guess. That part’s not as important as BOOKER T, SUCKAAAA.
Booker T’s first pitch for the Astros inspired a mascot Spinaroonie
He probably asked if he could throw the pitch FIVE TIMES FIVE TIMES FIVE TIMES FIVE TIMES FIVE TIMES. They said no.
Bill Hanstock is a writer, author and Emmy Award-winning producer. He began writing for SB Nation in 2011.
First, the pitch, which was a terrific one.
Booker gets a million bonus points for having the Internet’s favorite baseball player catching.
And then Orbit had to show off his sweet, sweet moves.
(Naturally, here’s the requisite audio accompaniment:)
Makes sense that this would be the finest mascot Spinaroonie. The dude’s NAME is ORBIT.
