FanDuel TV host Kay Adams said she wanted “accuracy” when she threw out the first pitch at Wrigley Field before the Cubs-Guardians game Wednesday.
However, it didn’t go as planned for the host of the “Up & Adams” show.
Adams threw the ball near the first base line, and Chicago’s mascot, Clark the Cub, had to run after it.
The Chicago native, who sported a Henry Rowengartner jersey from the Cubs-centric movie “Rookie of the Year,” hugged Clark afterwards.
She was a good sport about it and joked with some fans on X.
Adams also dedicated her first pitch to legendary broadcaster Bob Uecker, who died in January.
Chicago went on to beat Cleveland, 5-4.
In another video, Adams shared that she was originally set to throw the first pitch at the Cubs game on Tuesday, but had to cancel when she was called to Kansas City for an interview with Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
“The Cubs were absolutely amazing and said, ‘No problem, you can do it on Wednesday,'” Adams mentioned in the video before Wednesday’s game. “I got pulled from last night’s lineup. My elbow was a bit sore. Not sure what my ERA is.”
“I have no power. I have withered to bone. I just want accuracy. I’m going to stand in front of the mound.”
When it comes to bad first pitches, Adams isn’t in a club of her own.
Last month, former Titans offensive lineman Taylor Lewan went viral for his awful first pitch at a Cardinals game.
Lewan threw the ball near the first base on-deck circle where several people jumped out of the way.
“Juuuuuust a bit outside,” the Titans X account wrote at the time, referencing Uecker’s call from the movie “Major League.”
“My own team,” Lewan replied with a sad face emoji.
The southpaw, who called it “the worst day of my athletic career,” vowed to redeem himself.
50 Cent still gets trolled for his visit to Citi Field, where he couldn’t help but laugh at his terrible first pitch attempt for the Mets in 2014.
