Watch 50 Cent Whiff on a First Pitch at Mets Game
Let’s just say that 50 Cent can sure spit a verse better than he can toss a baseball. Last night at Citi Field ahead of a game between the New York Mets and the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates, the rapper was given the honour of throwing out the first pitch.
Draped in a Mets cap and jersey with the number 50 pressed upon it, ‘Fitty’ got set, wound up, and proceeded to toss the ball way left. If three back catchers were lined up in a row behind the plate, chances are he still would’ve missed them all.
To his credit, he laughed off the incident and during an in-game interview would jokingly deny knowing the guy who threw the wickedly bad curveball.
Now, there’s been talk online about whether Jackson’s failed first pitch is worse than that of pop star Carly Rae Jepsen, who bombed big time at a Tampa Bay Rays game not too long ago.
You can watch both attempts below and let us know who you think needs to handle their balls better.
