Duff McKagan Tosses Ceremonial First Pitch

June 28th 2012

Strolling across the red carpet to "Welcome to the Jungle," former Guns N' Roses bassist Duff McKagan traded his axe for a baseball on Thursday night.

The Seattle native threw out the ceremonial first pitch before the Mariners took on the Red Sox, making him at least the second hometown rocker to do the honors this season.

?It was totally nerve-wracking to throw out the first pitch,? he said. ?I got about 150,000 texts saying don?t throw it in the dirt -- so I threw it really high, but not too high.?

Despite their place in the standings, McKagan has faith in his favorite team.

?We?re comfortable here," he said. "We?re just waiting for somebody else to falter and then we?ll take over.?

DUFF MCKAGAN Throws Out First Pitch At Safeco Field In Seattle (Video) - July 4, 2012

Duff McKagan (VELVET REVOLVER, DUFF MCKAGAN'S LOADED, GUNS N' ROSES) threw out the ceremonial first pitch prior to the game between the Seattle Mariners and the Boston Red Sox on June 28 at Safeco Field in Seattle, Washington.

"It was totally nerve-wracking to throw out the first pitch," Duff told MLB.com. "I got about 150,000 texts saying don?t throw it in the dirt ? so I threw it really high, but not too high."

As previously reported, McKagan will be this year's Grand Marshal of the Alaska Airlines Seafair Torchlight Parade in downtown Seattle.

This year's parade is on Saturday, July 28, at 7:30 p.m. As always, it starts at Seattle Center and heads downtown along Fourth Avenue on a 2-1/2 mile route.
