People magazine reports Jake threw a strike while Romy’s pitch was slightly wide of home plate.
Jake and Romy shared a hug on the field and posed with the Dodgers who caught their pitches, Alex Call and Miguel Rojas.
In December, Jake and Romy’s brother Nick Reiner was arrested after their parents were found dead in their Los Angeles home. Nick has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder. In February, Nick entered a not guilty plea.

View StoryIn April, Jake spoke out about Rob and Michele’s deaths in a heart-wrenching essay on Substack, and noted how important the Dodgers were to him and his dad.
Jake wrote, “My connection with him was first built on baseball. It was my grandfather’s favorite sport, passed down to my dad and then to me. We loved the Dodgers more than anything. We went to so many damn games. I’ll never go to Dodger Stadium again without feeling my dad’s presence and hearing his voice tell me why Shohei Ohtani should never bat in the leadoff spot.”

Jake also co-hosts “The Incline: Dodgers Podcast” with Kevin Klein, but stepped back from the show after his parents were killed.
He returned to the podcast in May, sharing, “When it comes to the Dodgers, you know, my first love, is something that I’ve always connected with my dad first and foremost, and it's something that I will continue to connect with him for the rest of my life.”
