50 Cent's ceremonial first pitch at the Mets-Pirates game Tuesday night was embarrassing, but was it the worst of all time?
The Daily News said the rapper's throw – which went way, way outside – "could be considered the worst ceremonial first pitch in the history of Citi Field, or perhaps all of baseball."
50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, fired back at critics on Instagram, saying, "I'm a hustler not a ... ball player."
In all fairness, 50 Cent isn't the only celebrity who has fouled up a first pitch. "Call Me Maybe" singer Carly Rae Jepsen made headlines last July when she flubbed her throw at a Tampa Bay Rays game, and Olympian Carl Lewis' ball fell flat a few feet from the mound before a 2003 Mariners game.
