It's International Champions Cup season, and you know what that means: footballers partaking in American sports, most notably baseball, which is the only major sport in season at this time. As such, Angel di Maria, who is in Florida with PSG ahead of their match against Tottenham on Saturday, went to a Miami Marlins game. He hung out with the players, juggled a baseball and threw out the first pitch.

Hey, that pitch wasn't bad! He got it all the way to the plate without bouncing it, which can not be said for everyone who throws out the first pitch at a MLB game. I'm more impressed with the juggling, though, because Di Maria presumably does not have very much experience juggling baseballs, which are small and offer no cushion at all. That's how you know you've got good touch.
