After Parris Campbell threw out the first pitch at a Cincinnati Reds game last week, the Northeast Ohio native drew some questions about why he threw the first pitch for the Reds and not the Cleveland Indians.
Now, his hometown team is helping him rectify that.
Campbell announced Friday on Twitter that he will be throwing out the first pitch for the Indians at Saturday's game in Cleveland against the Atlanta Braves, which is scheduled to begin at 4:10 p.m.
Looking forward to throwing out the first pitch tomorrow at the @Indians game! Need both @OhioStateFB and @Indians fans to be at the ballpark to cheer on the Tribe! #RallyTogether pic.twitter.com/sqmVCWGOUh

Ohio State assistant wide receivers coach Keenan Bailey posted a brief video of Campbell preparing for Saturday's first pitch at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center on Friday.
