So who did throw the most opening day baseballs?

Drum roll please....

Franklin Delano Roosevelt. That's right FDR.
Out of the 9 people who voted only 2 were correct. One of my colleagues said, "Well, isn't the answer obvious because FDR was president the longest?" Apparently not. Most people told me they didn't vote for FDR because they knew he was handicapped. I guess they better brush up on their history of presidential baseball.

Check out the website below for fun facts about FDR and baseball, including the games he opened.
