While they're not always allowed on the golf course, mulligans are apparently acceptable when it comes to delivering a first pitch. That was the case Saturday for Saints running back Alvin Kamara, who was given a do-over on his opening pitch for the Chicago Cubs' game against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals.

After pulling and bouncing the ball in a throw to the Chicago Cubs mascot, the New Orleans Saints running back held out his glove and requested the ball back for a second pitch. He waved to the crowd and fired a better pitch, but still missed the strike zone by a few feet.

Alvin Kamara got a mulligan. And he made the most of it. Via MLB.com, the Saints running back threw out the first pitch for Saturday’s game between the Cardinals and the Cubs. He didn’t like his first attempt at the first pitch, which was in the dirt and bounced away from the mascot/catcher.
