Regular Justin Purrlander

HERO CAT. Throws Out 1st Pitch.With Help from Rescue Boy. She's a regular Justin Purrlander ... or Clayton Furrshaw ... 'cause Hero Cat threw out the first pitch at a minor league baseball game tonight -- AND CRUSHED IT.
Sports has obtained pics of Hero Cat and Jeremy . pictured below, the little boy she saved from that vicious dog earlier this month -- taking the mound together at the Bakersfield Blaze game. the Class-A affiliate of the Cincinnati Reds.

Of course, the now famous cat-beats-dog incident took place only miles from the stadium -- and the Blaze reached out to honor their hometown hero.
We're told the crowd cheered like crazy for the pair -- and after the pitch, they stayed to take in the rest of the game from seats right near the CATcher.

"Sadly it does not look like Chelsea will be one of them." Cole helped Chelsea win the Premier League title in 2010 as well as the 2012 Champions League.

He has also won four FA Cups with the Blues, to add to the three he won at Arsenal, following his move to Stamford Bridge from the Gunners in August 2006.

Cole won the 2007 League Cup with Chelsea and was part of the club's Europa League triumph under interim manager Rafael Benitez in 2013.

But he endured a frustrating 2013-14 campaign under returning manager Jose Mourinho, starting just 15 Premier League games in a trophy-less season for the Blues.

"Now I'll be looking for another journey in my life," added Cole.

"I hope it can be like my others, full of fun and of course win something."
