""I didn't do it in heels when I practiced," Colby said after bouncing her pitch. "But I've heard that I did better than some people in flats.""
""On the count of three, I want you to pretend this is a Beyoncé concert," said host Inita D before opening the show. "Three other performers in sparkly, sequined costumes followed, dancing their way through the gathering crowd.""
Sasha Colby, the first trans woman of color to win 'RuPaul's Drag Race', participated in a ceremonial first pitch at Nationals Park for Pride Night. Although her pitch was not perfect—she practiced without heels—Colby expressed joy in the experience. The event also featured a groundbreaking drag show before the game, marking a first for Washington's Pride night. Organized by Team DC, the pregame show was infused with excitement and celebration, underscoring Colby's role as an advocate for the LGBTQ+ community and the importance of sports participation.
