PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - Jason Kelce and Fletcher Cox will throw out the ceremonial first pitch Saturday before the Philadelphia Phillies' game against the Atlanta Braves at Citizens Bank Park, the recently retired Eagles center said on his "New Heights" podcast.

"I'm throwing out a pitch, me and Fletcher Cox," Kelce said. "We'll see how it goes. My elbow doesn't work anymore, so I think Fletcher's going to have to do it."

"I really jumped off Opening Day in Cleveland last year," Travis Kelce, Jason's brother, said. "You and Fletcher Cox? See, this is how they got me. They said, 'You and mom are going to throw out the first pitch,' and then mom was like, 'You got it.' I was like, 'Mom, I didn't practice.'"
