NBA Finals MVP Dirk Nowitzki brought the Dallas Mavericks’ victory tour to Rangers Ballpark in Arlington Friday night, throwing out the first pitch before the Texas Rangers opened their weekend series with the New York Mets.
Before stepping onto the rubber, however, Nowitzki had to bring some of his game to the diamond. He walked out of the dugout cradling a basketball and shot one of his signature fadeaway jumpers from the front of the mound.
Then Nowitzki took the mound and channeled his inner Nuke LaLoosh. Dirk brought the high heat, almost throwing his first pitch over Michael Young’s head and into the face of the Rangers captain mascot. Video courtesy of the MLB Network.
