On Oct. 2, Jiff the Pomeranian threw out the first pitch at the Los Angeles Dodgers vs. San Diego Padres baseball game in one of the best first pitches we've ever seen. Of course, the little teddy bear pup didn't actually throw it. Rather, he chased after a ball thrown from the pitcher's mound and when he finally retrieved it, his paws were all over it. It was ridiculously adorable—just watch the Instagram video he posted to his 1.8 million followers below for proof.https://instagram.com/p/8ocCYUkXCj/?taken-by=jiffpom

Jiff's throw was a smile-inducing change of pace from the typical first-pitchers—celebrities. But that doesn't mean we don't love them, too! This baseball season was packed with stars heading to the field to support their favorite teams, from your girl-next-door St. Louis native Karlie Kloss to hilarious Aussie comedian Rebel Wilson. As the final American and National League teams battle it out for the 2015 World Series, we're taking a look back at the celebrities who made it to the mound this season. Scroll down to see 10 stars (not doggies) who channeled their inner athlete.
