Brianna Wakefield, the daughter of late Boston Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield and his wife, Stacy Wakefield, threw the first pitch prior to the Red Sox's home opener against the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday.
The pitch was caught by Red Sox coach Jason Varitek, former teammate and friend of Tim Wakefield.
Tim Wakefield died in October after being diagnosed with cancer.
Wakefield helped the Red Sox to World Series wins in 2004 and 2007. His 430 career starts marks a franchise record.
The Red Sox also honored Stacy Wakefield, who died in February.
