Throw the First Pitch!
Bidding is open now through June 23rd
Minnesota Atheists and the Freedom From Religion Foundation are sponsoring a St Paul Saints game on Friday, July 11th. They are renaming their team the Mr Paul Aints for the evening and calling it the Night of Unbelievable Fun: The 3rd Strike.
As the sponsor, we get the honor of throwing the first pitch.
- In 2012 American Atheists president, David Silverman, threw the first pitch.
- In 2013 Minnesota Atheists president, Eric Jayne, threw the first pitch.
- In 2014, it could be YOU who throws the first pitch!
We are putting the honor up for auction with proceeds going toward offsetting the costs of the game and corresponding conference the next day. If you’re interested in winning the opportunity to get the unbelievable fun started by tossing out the first ceremonial pitch, email your bid with your name, address, and phone number.

That pitch was an ally and it was dividing the baseball movement to call it low and outside!
