103-year-old woman throws first pitch at Rangers game
A 103-year-old woman who says she actually died earlier this week for several minutes and was brought back to life by a nurse got to throw out the first pitch at a Texas Rangers game.

ARLINGTON, Texas (KGO) -- One of the Texas Rangers' biggest fans received a big honor on Tuesday night -- Lucille Fleming threw out the first pitch at the team's game against the Blue Jays.

The 103-year-old almost didn't make it to the game. She told a Texas TV station that she actually died earlier this week for several minutes and was brought back to life by a nurse.

Lucille said it was just a health scare and that she wanted to survive so she could make it to the game!
