Mariah Carey: Better at Singing than Baseball
Published 5/30/2008 by Anthony Hall at MVN Outsider
... Apparently, Mariah Carey’s popular in Japan — so popular, in fact, that she was invited to throw out the first pitch before a baseball game between the Yomiuri Giants and Rakten Eagles. Big League Stew found video of the pitch, and as you might have guessed, hilarity did indeed ensue when Mariah stepped onto the mound and made the throw: ...

First Pitches: Mariah Carey Throws Like Carl Lewis
Published 5/31/2008 by jason at SPORTSbyBROOKS
... BIG LEAGUE STEW tosses us news that Mariah Carey was asked to do the honors for the Yomiuri Giants of Japan. The songstress showed good from - however, we’re not talking about her hurling prowess . (Video of Mariah’s pitching performance after the jump.) Mariah was led out onto the field by twin Giants mascots (we think they’re owls), and as she stood on the mound, the camera crew concocted a nice, slow pan up Carey’s legs. Her toss was very Lewis-like, but it did reach the plate. And the PA announcer was very supportive, calling out to the crowd, “Nice throw!” Now that ...

We don’t speak a lick of Japanese, but these announcers seem completely repulsed by Mariah Carey’s laughable attempt at throwing out the first pitch. You know you’re a campy caricature when they make fun of how cartoonily ostentatious you are in Japan . If she was 14 or something, this still wouldn’t be nearly as cutesy as she obviously thinks it is, but goddamn Mariah Carey is almost 40 ...
Mariah Carey Video - Throwing Out The First Pitch

Posted 5/30/2008 on Knuckle Curve - Baseball News

Check out this video of Mariah Carey throwing out the first pitch. I’m not sure which teams are playing but it’s safe to say Mariah was at a Japanese baseball game. Actually, looking at the video again, it appears that one of the teams was the Yomiuri Giants and they appear to be in the Tokyo Dome. Mariah’s pitch only went about eight feet but she gets an A for effort. No ...

Mariah Carey may have just recently married Nick Cannon, but it's pretty apparent that she hasn't taken on his last name yet, because she definitely wasn't displaying a cannon (yeah, I'm tired, and that's all I got) when throwing out a first pitch at some game in Japan. I mean, she couldn't even manage to get 10 feet before that thing hit the ground.

Mariah Carey Throws Out First Pitch In Japan

For whatever reason, presumably because people still like her in Japan, Mariah Carey threw out the first pitch for a game between the Yomiuri Giants and Rakten Eagles in Tokyo. The pitch barely made it past her breasts. I'd say she throws like a girl, but I think that would be an exaggerated compliment. The only person impressed with that pitch was Barry Zito. Now for a real ...
