Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez throws out first pitch at Rangers game from behind the plate (Video)

The Texas Rangers honored the retirement of longtime catcher Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez with a pregame ceremony before Monday's game against the New York Yankees. Rodriguez threw out a unique ceremonial first pitch, as he ran back behind home plate and fired the ball one more time down to second base to former Rangers teammate Michael Young.



Rodriguez played most of his career for the Texas Rangers (12 of his 21 seasons), so it was only fitting that he retired as a Ranger.
