Sister Mary Jo Sobieck is no joke on the baseball mound. The Chicago White Sox invited the nun, who works for the local, Marian Catholic High School to throw out the ceremonial first pitch at a baseball game Saturday to guaranteed rate field against the Kansas City Royals. Many guests players are known to flub the first pitch of experience – it is not as easy as it seems to throw a perfect fastball strike, after all. But Sister Mary Jo is a professional. Dressed in their traditional habit, a T-shirt with the name of high school, she and a pair of running shoes reasonable repetitions heats the nun, as I casually show off ball skills before the step of throwing overhand. It ‘was a blow, of course. Since this impressive performance Sister Mary Jo the hearts of baseball fans and fans all over the country won, also gaining an unexpected for his athletic skills on ABC’s Good Morning America seems to invite. Who knows what other skills the American nuns are hidden. The match that followed was close, but ultimately, the White Sox won out over Royals 7-6. Perhaps distance was opening Sister Mary Jo is a bit ‘of luck too. Photo copyright by the New York Daily News NY Daily News Archive via Getty Images
