An Astros Fan Proves That Celebrities Aren't the Only Ones Throwing Awful First Pitches This Summer (Video)

This Astros fan threw what may go down as the worst first pitch of all time last night.

Is it just us or have there been a ton of awful first pitches this summer? We don't know if MLB teams are holding more first pitch ceremonies, which would account for more bad first pitches, or what. But good grief! There's a new one every other day.

Today, we got this first pitch courtesy of an Astros fan. The Astros aren't very good, so we can't say that we're surprised to see their fans failing on the field. But this is just…bad. We understand bouncing a ball in front of home plate. But this ball didn't even go five feet! The fan threw it directly into the ground!

Oh well. Maybe we shouldn't be surprised by how bad these first pitches are getting. Maybe people have caught onto the fact that it's better to throw a bad first pitch than it is to throw a good one, at least if they're looking to gain some attention for themselves.

At any rate, we'll see you tomorrow. We're sure there will be another "worst first pitch ever!" candidate by then.
