On July 10th, the City of Parma hosted Parma Night at Progressive Field where the Indians faced off against the Yankees. Mayor Tim DeGeeter gave the honors of throwing the first pitch to a lucky Parma resident under the age of 17. The winner of the drawing was nine-year-old Johnny Coventry. Nicole Coventry, Johnny’s mother, and Kathy Lucheese, his grandmother, shared his excitement. “Johnny was very surprised,” Lucheese said. He said "I really hope the players sign the ball for me!"
