Cardinals first-round pick Haason Reddick is set throw out the first pitch at the D-backs game Friday night.

The linebacker will make his “big-league debut” at around 6:30, just before the D-backs take on the Phillies at 6:40.

Joining Reddick will be Suns first-round pick Josh Jackson, who was picked fourth overall by the Suns Thursday night.

The former Temple walk-on Reddick was selected 13th overall by the Cardinals in this year’s draft.

Reddick may not want to get advice from his new teammate David Johnson on how to throw out a first pitch, as Johnson bounced his attempt wide-left before a game this April.
