Minor league team in Reno has a rabbit throw out the ceremonial first pitch

The minor league team had an actual rabbit throw out the ceremonial first pitch Saturday, with some help from a pitching machine. The rabbit, named Alex the Great, has become a bit of a sensation on social media. According to MLB.com, he was rescued from a meat farm in California and adopted. He's now a certified therapy rabbit who visits hospitals and charity events.

Alex also visited the broadcast booth at the game and showed off his appetite — or lack thereof.
