The pitch at the cameraman and the one hitting the guy in the nuts were both worth the price of admission. I never knew first pitches could be so entertaining.
I always thought that too until I saw some Astros fan in an Astros shirt throw one straight to the ground! She spiked it like a football & she took the top spot in my opinion. Look for it.
I doubt that, I don’t think I have ever heard anyone say “ oh, Baseball is an easy sport” that’s not really a thing… people say that about Nascar maybe. I think most people are self aware enough to realize it it’s not easy to hit a ball flying at you 90mph with a bat.
Eric Davis was absolutely perplexed. Lol That dude is awesome by the way. Haven't heard from him in a long time but He did a interview on the Jim Rome show in the early 2000's and it was really good.
Selecting these people to throw out the ceremonial first pitch is like selecting Rosanne Barr to sing the National Anthem at the All-Star game. Oh wait . . .
When I played baseball my throws were more or less accurate. I never threw a ball for about 6/7 years after I stopped playing and when I started up again I threw stinkers like a lot of these guys. Use it or lose it.
If I ever get a first pitch I'll tell you this, I'm going to fire that thing in there, and let's just say they better clear the area out in the general vicinity of the plate.
It seems like for most of these people it's the first time they've ever thrown a baseball. I would probably want to practice a few times before throwing before 35,000 fans on national television.
All of them were OK. I liked Jepson's, although I don't know who she is. Darth Vader has no mobility in his costume, for throwing. Only way he gets a strike is to use 'the Force.' The Wizards dude is telling, though, that you can be a great basketball player and not be able to throw a baseball. Jordan played baseball for 2 seasons and his throw was OK, but a LOT of moving parts. I like the idea that every sport is a 'piece' of the 'whole.' One thing I learned from playing video games, is that some bosses are harder to 'read' than most, because of their 'windup.' You need very good timing to 'parry' their heavy attack. I made progress, when I realized that one boss, in particular, who wields a big one handed lightning hammer, was like a big league fastball pitcher's windup. I would think baseball players would be better at games that involve reading different speed of attacks. That's why baseball is not this dumb American sport. It's kinda useful to know about.
@@JonBecker81 Imagine never playing a guitar and you may have played it once or twice or even many times and you are a good guitarist and then for the first time ever you played that guitar in front of a 1000 people. Can you not imagine doing something badly purely because of the big crowd jitters?
@@bobbobertbobberton1073 throwing a baseball within 4 ft left or right of the plate is a whole hell of a lot easier than playing a guitar. I’ve seen compilations of these 1st pitches and it would have been easier for first base to catch it than the catcher.
@@JonBecker81 I used to be extremely (and still am, to a certain extent) shy and get stage fright. Things that are normally extremely easy to do become hard because your body shivers uncontrollably and you become stiff-plus you get the yips. The way I see it, for some people, throwing a first pitch is 10% skill and 90% controlling your emotions.
0:36 for all we know, that dude was actually aiming for that photographer's nuts and this is actually the greatest first pitch of all time
he wasnt idiot.
His reaction to getting hit reminded me of when you hit the "hippo" or fat guy in the old school game mike tysons punch out:)
That was the best one
The pitch at the cameraman and the one hitting the guy in the nuts were both worth the price of admission. I never knew first pitches could be so entertaining.
0:36 the organ music afterwards makes it 100x funnier
Vader pitches the way his Storm Troopers shoot.
lmaooo
He should have used the Force to direct the ball.
That dude that got hit in the nuts tho 😂😂😂
2:25 The umpire ejects the mayor 😂
Laughed so hard at it lol
It's amazing how even elite athletes can look as uncoordinated as an infant when doing something unfamiliar like pitching lol
The first one in my opinion is the worst one of all time 😭
I always thought that too until I saw some Astros fan in an Astros shirt throw one straight to the ground! She spiked it like a football & she took the top spot in my opinion. Look for it.
It is the worst one of all time because she hit him in the face and didn’t even say she was sorry. She went over and hugged the actual player.
If I threw that bad I would not want to do it.The guy who was hit in nuts in Boston was my favorite.
Most of the people who through these pitches are probably the ones who say baseball is an easy sport
You probably make fun of people who spell things wrong as well.
@@cantoffendanyone5786 I mean he is right..
It really isn’t no starter players could hit it right off the bat like how the see it on thhe mlb…
*threw

The second announcer spoke so much truth in 15 seconds
2:08 Ms. Texas throw was bad but her form makes up for it
she signed up for the bowling opening ceremony
Eric Davis was absolutely perplexed. Lol
That dude is awesome by the way. Haven't heard from him in a long time but He did a interview on the Jim Rome show in the early 2000's and it was really good.
He definitely has a story to tell coming from where he did and getting where he got to.
I hope everyone has a great day
it’s like some of them never held a baseball in their life jesus😂
If you decided to make a part 2 to this video, don't forget to include the D1 baseball player from Brown University, earlier this year.
Surprised an athlete like Connor McGregor failed so bad
He can throw hands, but apparently not a ball
It looks like he's not even a lefty
I'm not
He was probably drunk
Conor throws like a girly man 😆
The problem seems to be that most of these people tried winding up. They would have been better suited doing a soft lob.
That darth vader pitch was hilarious,, he was like here go fetch,,,
That old dude threw that ball like, I told ya'll keep this F*CKIN ball out of my yard!!
I will shut out every argument that says 36 seconds wasn’t premeditated.
Selecting these people to throw out the ceremonial first pitch is like selecting Rosanne Barr to sing the National Anthem at the All-Star game. Oh wait . . .
The force definitely was not with Darth on that one
You can add Stephen A Smoth to that list
It’s amazing how difficult it is for people to do this 😂
When I played baseball my throws were more or less accurate. I never threw a ball for about 6/7 years after I stopped playing and when I started up again I threw stinkers like a lot of these guys. Use it or lose it.
Wouldnt you practice if you were scheduled to throw out the first pitch? I would...and i pitched varsity in high school.
It is amazing how far apart various athletic skill sets can be from one another
You guys were scared to put Fauci in there huh. lol
Im not going to be a professional baseball player any time soon but I'm pretty certain i could at least get it to catcher
Mouse over 0:38 and click over and over. It's quite an effect! By the way, who dubbed in the crunching sound?
As a baseball pitcher, this makes me feel like a superhero - LOL
If i got to throw out a first pitch i would chuck it into the stands
Screw that! Chuck it to 2nd!
0:35 😂😂😂
I feel like they do a worst pitch on purpose just to get people talking about them. Like how hard is to throw a damn ball
Death Vader could’ve definitely recovered by pretending to force choke the stands for booing him
If I ever get a first pitch I'll tell you this, I'm going to fire that thing in there, and let's just say they better clear the area out in the general vicinity of the plate.
0:22 that might be the biggest roast I thing I’ve ever heard
MrBeast: Throw the baseball into the glove if you're a man
Kris:
HELPPP I LAUGHED SO LOUD AT THE FIRST ONE I WAS SHOCKEDDDD HAHA
The one that hit the guy in the nuts was the best🎉
What about Obummers first pitch? He threw as bad as some if the girls did. It actually looked like an unathletic girls throw
List is a fail, no Anthony Fraudci.
That being said, his throw was still significantly better then his honesty and accountability.
I never thought of 50cent the same after that…
I keep expecting the next pitch to be good, even though I searched for this.
Haven't these men ever played catch growing up?
The bangkok pitch was epic.
Obviously, Darth Vader didn’t have a father
Ouch the cubs pitching staff joke hurt.
I herd McGregor sprained his nose on that pitch.
MLB should just get rid of this “first pitch” nonsense. There’s absolutely no point in this event.
well that is big hit to the Empires marketing department
Angel Hernandez be like: "STRIKE!"
Imagine going to a game thinking you are just going to take pictures, but you walk out with a vasectomy
thers no way these people took a practice pitch before lmao
2:17 even the dude that was supposed to catch it is like "what the fuck was that?"
You’d think they’d do a couple practice throws before hand
I’m pretty positive they do
How can everyone not throw to the catcher I would have practiced !!
They might have better results if they try a split fingered fastball. I think most try to throw the ball by gripping it with all five fingers. 🤔
NO REDOs!
So is this where sports fans come from? They're just people who cant throw an accurate ball and are amazed how hard and accurate the pros can do it? 😂
Mcgregor and 50 got something in common
You can kind of forgive mcgregor a bit as he's Irish and they don't play the game.
I can't imagine growing up not learning how to throw a ball. But video doesn't lie.
1:06 everybody after that game was killed shortly thereafter
That is a awesome and cool
Connor still look good in that tree peace soot
Ceremonial Wild Pitch
The way everyone described baba booeys I was expecting way worse. It was bad but not as bad as some of the others on here
How is it possible for all these guys not be able to throw a ball? Did they really pick that moment to find out that they csnt throw a ball??
The Mets can’t even catch a break with their first pitches 😂😂😂
That bimbo in the first video, didn’t even say she was sorry after hitting him in the face. She just went over and hugged the player.
Some of these throws were purposely thrown that way
Cincy mayor - hilarious
Why the gotta do Darth Vader like that. 😭
It seems like for most of these people it's the first time they've ever thrown a baseball. I would probably want to practice a few times before throwing before 35,000 fans on national television.
Did these folks never throw rocks when they were kids? I mean, damn. 🤦🏽
I played alot of of baseball so to me this is hilarious and confusing 😂
Forgot Tony Fauci's flattened curve.
I cannot believe all of the guys who throw like girls!!
The fact that people can't throw a ball is a knock against their parents in my opinion. And it's sad.
You forgot O’Bummer
The nun threw a better first pitch than McGregor.
Luckily darts Vader can hide his face
It disrespectful to throw that badly. It’s an honor to be asked to do it. If you don’t make the effort to prepare for it, that’s on you!!!
Kind of shocking, as someone else said it’s as if they never held a baseball in their entire life
It's not easy to fire a baseball. It requires mechanics

Where’s dr fauci
Of course the most ridiculous one is in Boston. How do you hit a photographer squarely in the nuts without trying?
And a BaBabooey to y’all!
Right in the Fenway Frank
But hardball in the groin had a hardball in the groin.
Could you imagine is George Bush would have sailed a pitch like this after September 11th? America would have folded and would no longer exist.
Conor McGregor never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
Most of the people that spelled "threw" "through" also said spelling is easy
I don't understand how a grown men can't throw a ball lol.
How do these people throw the ball so far away from the target?
You ever had to do anything in front of hundreds if not thousands of people?
@@bobbobertbobberton1073 yes all the time I’m a musician.

2:59 Artie Lange losing it as BaBa Booey blows it
jesus christ how can anyone throw this bad?! I am the least athletic person in existence but I can at least throw balls straight dude
Pitching is incredibly hard, give your pitchers credit
