Cora Purcell is 104-years-old and is a lifelong fan of the Baltimore Orioles.

Lifelong in so far as she's been as fan for as long as they've been alive as the Baltimore Orioles (61 years). Well the Orioles made Cora's day (and ours) when they invited her to throw the ceremonial first pitch before Saturday's game against Washington Nationals. The result is surely the most heartwarming thing you'll see all day.   https://twitter.com/Orioles/status/620094170359705600 Hat tip to SB Nation.
