Calgary Flames assistant GM Chris Snow will throw out first pitch two years after ALS diagnosis

Chris Snow, the assistant general manager of the Calgary Flames, will throw out the first pitch at Fenway Park on Thursday when the Boston Red Sox play the Tampa Bay Rays. While ceremonial first pitches have become routine in baseball – with celebrities and other athletes taking the mound – Snow’s experience will be different. He was diagnosed with ALS in June 2019 and was told he would only have one year to live.
