Yesterday brought another surprise for Chicago as Angel Reese and Kamilla Cardoso walked up to the mound at the Wrigley Stadium and threw the first pitches one by one. Their throws were caught by the Cubs’ mascot, Clark.

Reese and Cardoso also shared a picture moment with Shota Imanaga, one of the best baseball athletes. The three lining up for the fans to see Chicago’s best talent right there. The ceremony took place just before the Chicago Cubs went head-on against the Atlanta Braves.

Notably, this was the duo’s other high-profile appearance since last week. Reportedly, Reese and Cardoso did a cameo alongside NBA legend Dwyane Wade in the recent NBA finals commercial. It also featured legendary names from the world of the NBA and entertainment including, Magic Johnson, Queen Latifah, Ken Jeong, and Jimmy Kimmel.

Now, bringing the focus onto Reese, she has earned a new moniker for herself after she made a huge business investment.

Reese is now the owner of a women’s professional soccer team

Throughout her journey, Angel Reese has been given many names. However, her recent title speaks volumes of her consolidating her name in the world of sports. Per the news18 network, Reese is the first member of the DC Power Football Club ownership group. It is a Washington-based women’s soccer team, which is gearing up for the United Soccer League Super League this summer.

“I’ve always wanted to impact sports, not just women’s basketball. I’ve always said I wanted to have part ownership of something. Obviously, basketball is my main thing, but growing up in the DMV area, I’ve loved sports, always, so being able to be a part of the Power FC soccer (team) is going to be so cool. I’m invested in soccer. A lot of my friends play soccer as well. I’m super excited for this partnership, and a lot of young black women don’t have these opportunities,” said Reese while making the announcement.

Her team, DC Power Football Club, will be playing in the USL Super League’s inaugural season as one of the 8 teams set to play in August.
