导出博客文章WASHINGTON -- One by one, swimmer Katie Ledecky handed her Olympic medals to
Bryce Harper. Four gold medals and one silver from the Rio Olympics sat in the
hands of the reigning National League MVP.As the Nationals star outfielder
admired the medals of the Olympic champion and held her hat, Ledecky threw the
ceremonial first pitch to reliever Shawn Kelley before the Baltimore Orioles
beat Washington 10-8 Wednesday night.Ive swum in front of 14,000 people, Ledecky
said of the pitch. Once the ball leaves the hand, you cant really control
it.Ledecky, a native of nearby Bethesda, Maryland, has thrown out the first
pitch at Nationals Park before. That was in 2012 after she won the 800-meter
freestyle at the London Olympics as a 15-year-old.I think Ive gotten stronger
and a lots happened in four years, she said. Ive been to a couple world
championships, more international meets, another Olympics, Ive gone through high
school, Im heading out to college. Looking back four years ago, a lot has
changed since then.Ledecky has just become more dominant.She tied as the most
decorated U.S. female athlete in Rio along with gymnast Simone Biles and just
short of Michael Phelps for the most among Americans. Before Ledeckys first
pitch, a tribute played on the video board, featuring a clip of her world
record-shattering victory in the 800-meter freestyle performance in Rio when she
won by more than 11 seconds.The 19-year-old met several Nationals before the
game, including Harper, whom she called one of her favorites. They didnt give
her any tips on the first pitch, which she said she practiced plenty Tuesday,
but they were curious about her five medals.They all wanted to see how heavy
they were and things like that, Ledecky said. They are pretty heavy. It was kind
of a different feeling for me to have them be a fan of me when Ive been a huge
fan of theirs for a couple years.Ledecky got a warm reception on the field 20
minutes before the start of the game but a rousing standing ovation when she was
shown on the video board before the fifth inning. Fans cheered and broke out in
chants of U-S-A! U-S-A!She said her accomplishments in Rio are slowly but surely
sinking in, only days after the closing ceremony.I expect itll sink in as we
move forward the next couple weeks, Ledecky said. Once I get back in the pool
and start working toward my next goals, I know you just kind of have to put
everything youve done behind you and start working toward the next thing.For
now, the next thing is college. Ledecky will be a freshman at Stanford in the
fall and plans to take some time off before starting school.Before she finds out
who her roommate his, Ledeckys mind is already on the Tokyo Olympics in
2020.Itll probably be the longest break Ill take in the next four years, she
said. Its just nice to be out of the water a little bit and get recharged for
the next four years.
