We’ve seen robots, hitting coaches and celebrities throw out first-pitches, but never before a Dinosaur from the Jurassic period. Before the Padres day game with the Royals this afternoon, the team had a robotic Raptor throw out the first-pitch at Petco Park.

Also Wednesday, The Baby Tyrannosaurus Rex will throw out the Ceremonial First Pitch. Baby T is in San Diego promoting Walking With Dinosaurs, which will be in San Diego November 26-30 for eight shows at the Valley View Casino Center.
