Lexie Hull stepped away from her usual Indiana Fever routine to take part in a special night at Victory Field between the team’s games against the Chicago Sky and Connecticut Sun.
Lexie Hull throws ceremonial first pitch
The event took place on August 27 during the Indianapolis Indians’ game against the Columbus Clippers. The evening was dedicated to Hull, giving the Indiana Fever guard an opportunity to connect with fans away from the basketball court.
Hull was invited to throw the ceremonial first pitch. From the mound, she delivered the ball toward home plate in a role far removed from her usual position on the basketball court. The Indiana Fever’s official account also shared photos of her appearance on social media.
Hull returns to WNBA action
Indiana Fever hosted the Connecticut Sun on Friday, August 28, one day after Hull’s appearance at the ballpark. Before the game, Hull drew attention with her fashion choice, arriving in a sparkling pink dress.
Indiana went on to secure a 111-91 victory. Hull contributed 7 points, 6 rebounds and 2 steals in 24 minutes, helping the Fever produce an all-around performance.
Indiana Fever prepare for WNBA break
The win over Connecticut was especially important because it marked Indiana’s final game before the WNBA break, which was scheduled to accommodate the 2026 FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup.
The pause will give Hull and the rest of the Fever several days away from competition. Indiana’s next game is scheduled for September 18, when the team visits the Toronto Tempo at Coca-Cola Coliseum in Canada.
