Red Sox fan gives us the best and most hilarious first pitch ever

We live in a world of hyperbole. Everything is marketed as the best thing ever because it draws people in.

We here at The Stew get it. We see that stuff on the Internet all the time.

But you have to trust us when we say this Boston Red Sox fan threw out the greatest first pitch of all-time before Wednesday’s game.

The debate has ended with this glorious toss.

Greatest of all-time? Without a doubt!

We’re afraid to go into much detail on this one. But as you can see from the video, the first pitch flies way off course and winds up hitting one of the camera men at the backstop right in his most sensitive area.

We don’t think we have to describe it more vividly than that.

We submit this as the best first pitch of all-time for a few different reasons. First off, it’s terrible. The ball is thrown so far off the mark that it rivals 50 Cent’s infamous pitch.

It comes close to matching Snoop Dogg’s as well.

But still for us in Australia nothing will ever beat the former Prime Minister John Howard’s woeful bowling display to the troops in Pakistan.

At least we have had one amazing first pitch that, when an Olympic gold medal-winning gymnast Nastia Liukin took to the mound and threw out this heat.
