Smashing Pumpkins Throw Out The First Pitch At Wrigley For Cub’s Game
The Smashing Pumpkins got to do something pretty cool in their hometown on Sunday night: throwing out the first pitch at the Cubs-Nationals game. The band sported custom jerseys featuring their names and a number. Guitarist James Iha and touring bassist Jack Bates wore No. 18, while frontman Billy Corgan, of course, got 0. Drummer Jimmy Chamberlin handled the pitching honors as his bandmates looked on. Reports say he did a solid job. Later for the 7th inning stretch, the Pumpkins returned to sing “Take Me Out To The Ballgame.”
