Stacy Keibler at Cal Ripken World Series

Stacy Keibler has always been known for her long legs. Now we’ll get to see what kind of arm the actress and former WWE diva has.

Keibler, a Rosedale native, is coming home to throw out a ceremonial first pitch before the Cal Ripken World Series championship game on Aug. 16 at the Ripken Baseball Academy in Aberdeen.

“I’m a big fan of encouraging kids to join physical, organized sports, and there’s nothing better in baseball than ‘The Ripken Way,’ ” Keibler said in a news release. “I actually have an uncle who is currently coaching for a Cal Ripken Baseball league in Florida. … Ripken Baseball represents a totally positive learning experience for their athletes. Attending the Cal Ripken World Series is an opportunity for me to show my support for all their special efforts and participate in an American family tradition”

Keibler is one of the stars if the upcoming ABC Family miniseries Samurai Girl, which airs next month.

I used to coach a team that played in the Cal Ripken League. It's an awesome experience for the kids and parents to see the kids get taught the right way. Plus you get to meet some great coaches that are involved that used to play for the Orioles and a few others that live in the Maryland area. It will be great to see Stacy back home for a while. I hope she gets to go back to see her parents because they are just as nice as she is. Maybe she will get to see the Ravens play while she is here. I know she still follows them.

You gotta love Stacy, a very humble and good-hearted celebrity..
