ARLINGTON, Texas – NBA champion Dirk Nowitzki of Germany at a one-legged jump shot than throwing a baseball. He got to do both Friday.
When the Dallas Mavericks basketball star went out to throw out the first pitch in a Rangers jersey just before Texas played the New York Mets, Nowitzki carried a basketball. Just before getting to the mound, with the crowd cheering wildly, Nowitzki fell back with one of his patented jumpers and sent the ball in the direction of home plate.
