Watch: USC Trojans football coach Lincoln Riley throws out first pitch at Los Angeles Dodgers game

In this story:
It was "USC Night" at the Los Angeles Dodgers game Friday evening, so USC Trojans football coach Lincoln Riley threw out the first pitch.
Typically, Riley's weekend "pitches" have a lot more to do with selling high school football prospects on a future with the Trojans.
Turns out, he's almost equally good at both, throwing a very catchable pitch to Justin Turner:

Riley has yet to coach a game at USC, but is already ingratiating himself to the city of Los Angeles.
USC accumulated a solid 2022 recruiting class, bolstered by arguably the nation's best transfer portal haul.
That haul could get even better if USC manages to land superstar Pittsburgh wide receiver Jordan Addison, the reigning Biletnikoff Award winner.
