Two months after leading the Philadelphia Eagles to a Super Bowl victory, it only seemed fitting head coach Doug Pederson would be the guy to throw out the first pitch for the Philadelphia Phillies before their home opener.

And apparently, Pederson can throw a perfect strike.

To make the moment a little more meaningful for Phillies fans, Pederson took off his jacket to reveal he was wearing a Roy Halladay jersey. Halladay, who played with Philadelphia from 2010-13 and retired as a member of the team after the 2013 season, tragically died after his plane crashed off the Gulf of Mexico in November.
