Charles Barkley threw out the first pitch at the Chicago Cubs-Cincinnati Reds game on Tuesday night.  We’ve seen a lot of god-awful first pitches this year and while this isn’t on par with 50 Cent, it’s still pretty bad for a Hall of Fame athlete.  Barkley’s pitch from the Wrigley Field mound falls short and wide right.

On the bright side though, at least there’s not a horrible hitch like in his golf swing!  So baseball seems to be the middle ground for one of the best basketball players and worst golfers who has ever lived.

Barkley was also interviewed by Fox Sports Ohio during the game about the pitch and some other topics, even calling out friend Thom Brennaman and his workout habits…
