PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Jahlil Okafor is getting acquainted with his new home. He has already taken to the Philadelphia streets and has tried the local cuisine.
On Tuesday, Okafor was introduced to the city at the Phillies game. Okafor threw out the first pitch prior to their game against the Milwaukee Brewers.

Prior to the pitch, Okafor met several members of the Phillies, including Ryan Howard. Okafor can make even the 'Big Piece,' appear small.
He makes baseballs seem pretty small as well.
Okafor also stopped by SportsRadio WIP's Phillies Pregame Show before taking the field.
Philadelphia sports fans got their first glimpse of Okafor on the diamond, but it is his hoops debut that we all want to see.
Okafor will make his Sixers debut in Summer League action on July 6.
