50 Cent Throws The Most... Just See For Yourself

If 50 cent played little league as child, heck even a simple game of pitch and catch, it didn’t show today. The multi-platinum rapper threw out the first pitch at Citi Field, before the New York Mets took on the Pittsburgh Pirates, and to say it was “just a bit outside” is an understatement. He […]

Jeff Francoeur Has Epic Prank Pulled On Him By Teammates

Wrigley Field Is Turning 100. Please Win Something For It Cubbies

March 20, 2014 By Nick A.

I’m not really sure why I chose to use this painful photo of a Cubs player colliding with a catcher at the plate.
