GLENDALE, Ariz. --  Col. Anne Gunter, commander, 944th Mission Support Group, threw out the first pitch during the Chicago White Sox opening Spring Training game Sunday at Camelback Ranch stadium in Glendale, Ariz.

"I am so proud to be a member of our military and to represent our men and women here at Luke Air Force Base," said Gunter. "It was wonderful to be able to get out and share in the great American past-time of baseball. It was my first time pitching and I'm excited my pitch made it to the catcher."

The 56th Fighter Wing Honor Guard from Luke AFB also participated in the opening ceremony by presenting the colors during the National Anthem.
