New York Jets’ Muhammad Wilkerson Throws Strike At Yankee Stadium (Video)

While it wasn’t a laser, recently signed Muhammad Wilkerson of the New York Jets did throw a strike at Yankee Stadium on Tuesday night.

You know the deal here. It’s a very common and predictable occurrence when a big named player is either signed or extended.

In that city for which he plays in, other teams begin the “now that you’re loaded, we’re going to show you off to everybody and their mother tour.”

This is what the New York Yankees did for big Muhammad Wilkerson on Tuesday night after his re-upped deal with the New York Jets.

Check out the video above via MLB. Big Mo threw out the first pitch prior to the Yanks 7-1 win against Buck Showalter and the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night, now that he has his bundle full loads of money (to the tune of $86 million over five seasons).

While it wasn’t the prettiest laser in the world, Big Mo did manage a strike in the House that Ruth Built.
