Mother Nature wrecked havoc on Travis Kelce's scheduled first pitch before Sunday's game between the Detroit Tigers and Cleveland Guardians. Kelce was scheduled to throw out the first pitch after it was announced on May 27 that he had purchased a minority stake in the Guardians. The Cleveland native — a three-time Super Bowl champion, four-time All-Pro and fiancé of music superstar Taylor Swift — bought a small share of David Blitzer’s 35% stake.
