In keeping with one of the finest of traditions in baseball, the Savannah Adult Baseball League welcomed Belle Neagle, 8, of Ellabell, Georgia to throw out the ceremonial first pitch before the Thrashers and Steamers game on Sunday at Chain Field.

Belle, who is the daughter of the Thrashers, Michael Neagle delivered a perfect strike to catcher Luis Medina as both teams looked on. When asked afterwards where she learned to throw like that, she responded by saying "from watching my brother and my dad".

Belle was at the park with her family to cheer on her dad as he celebrated his birthday and to make the moment even sweeter, her dad followed up her performance by helping the Thrashers to a 4-1 win!
