Who is singing World Series Game 2 anthem and throwing first pitch in Milwaukee?
After winning Game 1 of the World Series on Friday, Milwaukee Brewers will turn to another Hall of Famer in Paul Molitor to toss the ceremonial first pitch for Game 2 on Saturday.
Singer Kylie Cantrall will perform America’s national anthem prior to Game 2 at American Family Field in Milwaukee.
The Brewers had Robin Yount and former owner/MLB commissioner Bud Selig throw the first pitches ahead of the opener, the franchise’s first World Series game in 44 years.
Inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2004, Molitor began his career with the Brewers, playing 15 seasons from 1978-1992 in Milwaukee. He helped the Brewers reach that 1982 World Series, leading the league with 136 runs in the regular season before batting .340 in 12 playoff games, with Milwaukee falling to the Cardinals in the seven-game World Series.
Cantrall, 21, released an EP this summer entitled "Valley Girl Problems" and has appeared in multiple Disney programs, including a starring role in the "Descendants" film series.
The World Series will shift to Tampa Bay for Games 3, 4 and 5 if necessary.
