'Worst ever': Conor McGregor's iconic baseball pitch goes bonkers
UFC superstar Conor McGregor may have lethal hands inside the octagon, but not so on the baseball mound after throwing an all-time shocker before an MBL game.
McGregor was invited to throw the first-pitch at the Chicago Cubs game at the famous Wrigley field during his trip around America.

'DISGUSTED': Boxing champion Amir Khan kicked off flight
The Irishman caused a stir a couple of years ago when his attempt to throw a grid-iron football went horribly wrong at a Dallas Cowboys game.
And it doesn't appear The Notorious has a grasp on American sport just yet.
McGregor lined up on the plate and launched his pitch with decent pace.
Then only problem, the baseball flew 10 metres to the left of the catcher.
And the mascot's reaction said it all.
While McGregor was practically throwing on one leg as he continues to recover from a broken ankle, the Irishman's attempt will go down as an all-time fail.

Despite the terrible throw, McGregor was adamant the 'venom' and 'power' was still there.
And in true McGregor style, he continued to entertain the crowd as he sung: "Take Me Out To The Ball Game" for the fans.
