Taj Gibson throws out first pitch for White Sox... I’ve seen worse

Taj Gibson does not have a career ahead of him in baseball. His first pitch Monday at the White Sox game, from the pitchers mound to home plate, had more arc on it than one of his jumpers. Watch him get up to the mound with the ball, look at the catcher and mouth “that far?”

But, he didn’t bounce it up there, it was caught, so that puts him in front of a lot of people who have thrown out the first pitch. I’ve seen worse.

Aside that, not much interesting in the interview afterwards. None the less, thanks to CSNChicago.com for the video.
