Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri swung by the London Stadium ahead of the Major League Baseball clash between the Cubs and Cardinals. The MLB has returned to the UK for the first time in four years, after the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox played a two-game series in London in 2019. Over 130,000 fans are expected to pack into the London Stadium which was transformed over the last 18 days to become a ballpark. Norris was present and tried his hand at swinging along with Piastri, along with Team Principal Zak Brown. "I've never been to a baseball game ever and it's rarely I come to stadiums like this either, it's pretty sick these guys at the top of their sport so it's an honour to be here," Norris told Sky Sports . When asked about his baseball knowledge, Norris replied: "It's like swinging a golf club sideways right? Then you have throwing in, pitching in, etc.." Check out the photos below.
