Elena Delle Donne to throw out first pitch at Nationals' NLCS Game 4

Washington Mystics star and recently crowned WNBA champion Elena Delle Donne will throw out the first pitch at Game 4 of the NL Championship Series Tuesday between the Washington Nationals and St. Louis Cardinals.

94.7 The Drive reported that not only will the league MVP be given first-pitch duty, but the Nationals will recognize the Mystics for their WNBA title before the game.

The Mystics won the first title in their 22-year history Thursday with a 89-78 win over the Connecticut Sun in Game 5 of the WNBA Finals to take the series three games to two.
