Rapper Machine Gun Kelly made headlines for his unconventional ceremonial first pitch at the Cleveland Guardians game against the Chicago Cubs on August 13. Instead of throwing the ball to the catcher, he sprinted toward the third base line and launched the ball into the stands, drawing mixed reactions from fans online. The event was part of 'MGK Day,' celebrating his roots in Cleveland, with the first 10,000 attendees receiving custom bags of his 27 Club Coffee. While some fans found his pitch entertaining, many criticized it for breaking baseball tradition, with comments highlighting the absurdity of his throw. Despite the spectacle, the Guardians won the game 2-1, continuing their strong performance this season. Kelly's pitch joins a list of infamous ceremonial tosses in MLB history, further solidifying its place in baseball lore.
