Diego Pavia threw out the first pitch for Vanderbilt baseball in the opening game of its series against Arkansas on Friday night.
Pavia, the star Vanderbilt quarterback who won a lawsuit against the NCAA to get an extra year of eligibility, is returning for his second season with the Commodores in 2025 after transferring from New Mexico State before the 2024 season.
He helped lead Vanderbilt to an upset win over Alabama and a 7-6 record, the Commodores' first winning record in 10 years. They were victorious in the Birmingham Bowl against Georgia Tech.
Pavia took the mound wearing a Walker Buehler Boston Red Sox jersey. Buehler, a former Vanderbilt pitcher, signed with the Red Sox in the offseason after spending the first seven seasons of his career with the Los Angeles Dodgers. He threw a strike to outfielder Jacob Humphrey.
