109-Year-Old Veteran Throws Ceremonial First Pitch at Orioles Opening Day

A 109-year-old veteran threw out the first pitch for the Baltimore Orioles on Opening Day.

Arthur Green, a long-time Baltimore resident and veteran of World War II and the Korean War, took the mound at Camden Yards ahead of the Orioles’ 2–1 win over the Minnesota Twins.

Green previously threw a ceremonial first pitch at age 106.

Footage shows Green arriving with his daughter, Myra, stopping to have the ball signed by players before delivering the pitch to applause from the crowd.
