Jim Harbaugh, wearing cleats, throws out first pitch at Cubs game

Michigan football head coach Jim Harbaugh did not mess around when he threw the first pitch at Wednesday night’s White Sox-Cubs game at Wrigley Field.

It was all business for “Harbz,” who donned a personalized Cubs jersey tucked into, of course, khakis. But the surprising part of his attire involved what he was wearing on his feet to ensure good traction: baseball cleats.

Harbaugh threw a strike, because of course he did. It was similar to the pitch he hurled before last year’s Pirates-Tigers game.

But seriously, check out those cleats.

Harbaugh, with that heater, looks to be in better form than Jonathan Papelbon right now.
