Join the Archdiocese of Cincinnati as Archbishop Robert G. Casey is set to throw the ceremonial first pitch at a Cincinnati Reds home game. The event will take place on Saturday, August 30, at Great American Ballpark before the game against the St. Louis Cardinals. Media are invited to capture footage of this moment at approximately 6:25 p.m., with the game starting shortly after at 6:40 p.m.

The evening will not only feature Archbishop Casey's participation but also celebrate Catholic schools within the archdiocese. Principals from all 87 grade schools and 24 high schools will be recognized on the field around 6:20 p.m.

Tickets for the August 30 game can be purchased through Reds ticketing, with $5 from each discounted ticket going to support the Catholic Education Foundation of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.

The Archdiocese is noted as the 45th largest Catholic diocese in the U.S., serving nearly 440,000 Catholics and operating one of the largest Catholic school systems in terms of enrollment, with over 41,000 students across its territory.
