50 Cent embarrassed himself pretty badly this week as he threw an awful first pitch at a baseball game.

Despite looking ever the confident guest on the field in New York, his wayward throw soon went down in ceremonial pitch history as one of the worst.

Sailing way to the left, the ball almost hit a cameraman rather than landing in the catcher’s mitt.

"Just a bit outside," the commentator quipped. "What can you say? You think he opened up a little early?"

He even shared a few videos on Instagram trying to justify his poor effort, saying he can throw “better than all you motherf****rs”.

His new album Animal Ambition is out next week on June 3 and will be his fifth studio effort.
