LSU football head coach Brian Kelly throws first pitch at Baton Rouge summer league game

LSU football head coach Brian Kelly threw out one of two ceremonial first pitches at the Baton Rouge Rougarou's home playoff game on Tuesday.

The Rougarou is a summer collegiate baseball league team in the Texas Collegiate League.

They recorded the first playoff win in team history with a 5-4 victory over the Acadiana Can Cutters in the Louisiana Division championship at Baton Rouge's Pete Goldsby Field.

Kelly, alongside LSU baseball infielder Steven Milam, each hurled pitches to home plate ahead of the postseason contest.

Former LSU catcher Blaise Presenter, who plays for the Rougarou, caught the pitches from Kelly and Milam behind the plate.

The appearance of Kelly comes ahead of the first day of fall camp for the 2025 college football season.
