DJ Steve Aoki won’t have a career in baseball anytime soon.
Aoki threw out the first pitch prior to Monday night’s game between the Boston Red Sox and Houston Astros at Fenway Park, and it wasn’t remotely close to being a strike.

Most people who throw out a first pitch end up bouncing the ball, which is embarrassing enough, but the 44-year-old Aoki’s pitch flew way over the catcher’s head and landed high into the netting behind home plate.
Here’s another angle:

Aoki’s pitch at least made it to the plate, but it’s certainly up there with 50 Cent’s horrendous first pitch in 2014 as one of the worst we’ve ever seen (watch the 50 Cent pitch here).
At least Aoki had some sweet pants on to distract people from his terrible pitch.
