Bryan Stow

For those that follow sports regularly, the story of Bryan Stow is one that shocked many when the baseball season began last year. He traveled to Los Angeles to see his beloved Giants take on the Dodgers to open the season. Following the game, he was beaten almost to death by others that clearly didn't understand the true meaning of sports. The Giants community has rallied and continues to rally for Bryan and his recovery. Before the start of each game, one person is selected to throw the ceremonial first pitch. This is a great honor to anyone that is invited to throw out the pitch. The San Francisco Giants stepped up big time and asked Bryan to throw out the first pitch on Opening Day. Due to injuries that he had sustained from the beating, he was not able to attend the game. The Giants did the next best thing and allowed his son, Tyler, the honor of throwing the pitch.
