Truist Park was packed Thursday night not just because fans wanted to see an NLDS rematch between the Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies, but because iconic hip-hop duo Outkast was being honored with a bobblehead.
While the reclusive Andre 3000 wasn’t in attendance, Big Boi — the other half of Outkast — was. The 48-year-old even threw out the first pitch before the series-opening game between the two NL East rivals:
Big Boi’s first pitch may not have been especially impressive, but while appearing on the telecast later, he thought a pitch that Aaron Nola made to Eddie Rosario was spottieottiedopaliscious:
Unfortunately for the Phillies, it wasn’t an especially memorable night for Nola beyond this pitch. Continuing what’s been a frustrating 2023 thus far, Nola allowed eight hits and five runs over six innings, with the Phillies eventually losing the game 8-5.
