The silliest first pitch of the MLB season may go to the rapper and entertainer Ludacris, who earned the honor at an Atlanta Braves game on Wednesday.
Just a few months after performing during the Super Bowl earlier this year, Ludacris had another sports highlight to add to his resumé.
Before the game started against the Rockies, the Atlanta-based rapper made an amazing reference while on the pitcher’s mound. As he did in his music video for his hit single “Get Back” in 2004, Ludacris sported ginormous fake arms.
He completed the look with a similarly comically oversized wrist watch, which probably didn’t make throwing a baseball any easier. However, as you can see, he actually did a pretty decent job all things considered:
Get back, Luda!
