WWE Hall of Famer George The Animal Steele, who wrestled at Fenway Park on June 28, 1969, threw out one of the ceremonial first pitches on Friday, Sept. 21.
Known for biting the turnbuckle when he wrestled, he appeared to bite the ball before throwing. The other ceremonial pitch was thrown by Jim Roosevelt Jr., grandson of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who gave his final campaign speech at Fenway on Nov. 4, 1944.
