I saw that and laughed my butt off. Dropped like a stone well short of the plate.
Additional thought, why couldn't he throw to the catcher instead of using an Afghanistan vet as a prop?

I wonder if the vet was to throw out the first ball and kerry pre-empted that hero?

This has a smell to it. From what I understand, this was a last minute stunt by Kerry. I think the Vet was there to pitch the first ball and when Kerry took over they had him catch. We will know soon enough.

Did anyone check the ball? I bet he doctored it.
