"I loved it," Mitchell said after Game 2. "I saw José [Ramírez] behind the bench. I told him I was just trying to be like him. ... Obviously, you know my passion for baseball. Greg Newsome and Denzel Ward were over there as well. Like, it’s great to see. I think that’s one of the things I love about being here. It’s not just us. Everybody supports everybody. I think it’s a special place and it’s a special group, obviously within the athletes as well."
Well, there will definitely be more supportive appearances in the future, as the Cavs begin their series against the Pacers on May 1.
