ALTOONA - A man of "Steel" will trade his helmet and shoulder pads for a baseball cap and glove. At least for one night.
Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Lawrence Timmons is scheduled to throw out the first pitch during the Altoona Curve's second home game this season on Apr. 15, 2011.
Timmons' teammate, defensive end Ziggy Hood, threw out the first pitch last year.
WTAJ Your News Leader, your home for Steeler Nation, is the official sponsor of Lawrence Timmons' appearance.
Game time is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. at the Blair County Ballpark.
