What happened: Cutter Gauthier and Leo Carlsson handled the ceremonial first pitches before Saturday's Ducks Night game in Anaheim. The appearance extended a week of Ducks-Angels crossover events around the ballpark.

By the numbers: Gauthier's six-year, $81 million contract carries a $13.5 million average annual value through 2031-32.

What to watch: The Ducks' next public milestone is Thursday's opening of training camp at Great Park Ice.
