Caron Butler's Nationals Disaster

Thanks to the DC Sports Bog, here's a Wizards Magazine segment on Wizards guard Caron Butler throwing out the first pitch at a recent Washington Nationals game.



Caron broke the first rule of ceremonial first pitches, which is this: If you're going to miss, miss high, don't miss low. (And certainly, don't miss like the mayor of Cincinnati did on Opening Day.)

Loved Felipe Lopez challenging Butler as if he was Allen Iverson, and Dmitri Young imploring Butler to "please throw a strike". But my favorite part was Butler's catcher (who I believe to be bullpen coach Rick Aponte) telling Butler afterward: "hey, it's a strike in bowling". Priceless!
