American rapper 50 Cent has been criticised for his attempt at pitching the first ball before the New York Mets' baseball game against Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday.
The 38-year-old, real name Curtis Jackson, took to the field wearing a Mets jersey and cap before unleashing the throw towards catcher Anthony Recker.
However, his left-handed throw flew well wide of the catcher and almost hit a cameraman, but the rapper was able to laugh off the poor pitch.
Later on Instagram, 50 Cent responded to criticism by posting: "I'm a hustler not a Damn ball player. LMAO."
