NM and super coach Michael Aigner (http://fpawn.blogspot.com/) has just informed us that World U12 Champion FM Daniel Naroditsky (of California) will throw out the ceremonial first pitch at tonight’s baseball game between the Oakland A’s and the Minnesota Twins. The game start time is 7:05pm with the first pitch typically a few minutes prior to that.

Tuesday’s edition of the San Francisco Chronicle had an interesting article about some A’s players, notably pitchers Andrew Brown and Huston Street, who prefer to play chess to relax before games. Today, they hope to take on the champion in a game of chess before the baseball begins.

Thanks Michael for the news! Bravo Daniel!
