Champions of Magic to Throw the First Pitch at Indians Game on 9/29

On Friday, September 29, the Cleveland Indians game against the Chicago White Sox will open with the mesmerizing magic of the U.K. sensation Champions of Magic. The Champions of Magic will throw out the first pitch - with a magic twist guaranteed to surprise Indians' catcher (shh! he does not know what will happen) and amaze the crowd at Progressive Field.

The Indians own the longest winning streak in 100 years and the longest -- without a tie since 1900.

Stage illusionists Richard Young and Sam Strange of Champions of Magic will throw out the first pitch. Young & Strange have appeared on Penn & Teller: Fool Us and NBC's Caught on Camera with Nick Cannon. Their online videos have more than 30 million views. Young & Strange are known for their hilarious antics including their hijacking of Sky News-- see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqD_1TFhJdw. It is this type of magical hijinks that they will bring to the first pitch at the Indians game.

Champions of Magic will perform a limited engagement at Playhouse Square beginning December 27. The show is perfect for the entire family. This holiday season, audiences will be captivated when the U.K. sensation Champions of Magic performs at The Connor Palace at Playhouse Square. This mind-bending theatrical production is coming to the USA for the very first time, following four years in the UK, with sold-out shows, rave reviews and a run in London's West End.
