The Chicago Cubs flew the W on Wednesday night with help from another hometown team.

Chicago Sky stars Tamera Young, Stefanie Dolson and Imani Boyette took over Wrigley Field for the Cubs-Giants game, from the ceremonial first pitch to the seventh-inning stretch.

Young, the Sky's second-leading scorer this season, had the distinct honor of throwing out the first pitch.

And considering she was just hours out from a 14-point game against the Washington Mystics in Elena Delle Donne's return to Chicago, Young's arm looked pretty good.

It was a team effort in the seventh inning, though, with Dolson and Boyette providing crucial assists in the singing of "Take Me Out to the Ball Game."

The Sky travel to Washington D.C. on Friday to face the Mystics after falling to them 82-67 on Wednesday.
