St. Louis City SC Rolls Out Red Carpet for Sterling K Brown

St. Louis City SC rolled out the red carpet on Saturday for Sterling K. Brown, who delivered the match ball to the pitch prior to City SC taking on Inter Miami CF.

Brown was introduced over the PA as a "Golden Globe and Emmy award-winner, St. Louisan and St. Louis City SC supporter from day one." Brown, accompanied by his family and sporting an City SC jersey as well as a Band-Aid above his right eye, walked down a red carpet that had been laid out at mid-field and put the match ball on a pedestal.

Brown's presence seems to have brought the team luck, as it defeated Miami handily 3-0.

Brown, an MICDS alum, is known for starring roles on hit TV series The People versus O. J. Simpson and This Is Us, among many other credits.

Earlier this year he gave the commencement address at Washington University and prior to that worked with Explore St. Louis to promote tourism to the city.

Post-Dispatch sportswriter Ben Hochman was on hand to film Brown's delivery of the match ball. Check out his video below.
