Famed Chicago-area sports fan Sister Jean threw out the first pitch at Wrigley Field Tuesday night, as the Cubs took on the Philadelphia Phillies.
A month after her 103rd birthday, the chaplain rocked a custom No. 103 jersey as she completed an underhand toss to Clark, the Cubs' mascot, from her wheelchair.
After Clark received her pitch, he hugged her as the crowd at Wrigley Field roared with applause.

Sister Jean, who was born in 1919, rose to fame in 2018 due to her public support for Loyola Chicago's men's basketball team, the Loyola Ramblers, during the NCAA Tournament.
She proved a good luck charm for the team, which made an unlikely run to the Final Four that year for only the second time in its history.
The chaplain also proved to be a good luck charm for the Cubs on Tuesday as it beat the Phillies 2-1.
