101-year-old woman throws out first pitch at Blue Jays game (Video)

101-year-old-woman first pitch

101-year-old-woman first pitchGive it up for Kitty Cohen, a 101-year-old woman who threw out the first pitch at the Toronto Blue Jays-LA Angels game on Sunday … and did a nice job tossing a strike.

The Toronto Star says Cohen is a former legal secretary who “walks every day, attends many dance classes, reads voraciously and plays Scrabble.”

That’s not bad for a 101-year-old, huh? That’s not bad for anyone over 75, for that matter.

The Star says Cohen had been practicing her pitching for a month. It definitely paid off, because she tossed a perfect strike. And who’s complaining if she went underhand, anyway. Her pitch was still much better than John Wall and Nick Young’s.

Way to go, Kitty!
