Diamonds' Team Physician Throws 1st Pitch

Diamonds star pitcher, Monica Abbott, and first base/pitcher, Megan Gibson, liked what they saw when Dr. Petty threw out the first pitch at their game against the Chicago Bandits on July 18, 2010.   Dr. Petty was relieved to throw a strike.  "I didn't care if it hit the press box.  I was going to throw it hard," he said afterward.
