Yankees icon misses mark on ceremonial first pitch, requests second chance


In a pregame ceremony before Game 4 of the World Series between the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers, former Yankees player Paul O’Neill struggled with the ceremonial first pitch. O’Neill airmailed the first pitch over the head of A.J. Burnett, leading to laughter and disbelief among fans. Despite getting a redo, O’Neill still struggled and one-hopped the pitch to the catcher.

This mishap was the latest in a series of pregame blunders at Yankee Stadium, as rapper Fat Joe’s performance before Game 3 also received criticism on social media. The Yankees were facing a 3-0 deficit in the series, with the Dodgers taking an early lead in Game 4 thanks to a two-run home run by Freddie Freeman in the first inning. Freeman, who has been a standout performer in the series, previously hit a walk-off grand slam in Game 1 and has homered in six straight World Series games.

With their backs against the wall, the Yankees were hoping to avoid elimination and mount a comeback against the Dodgers. However, the team faced an uphill battle as they struggled to contain the Dodgers’ explosive offense. As the series continued, fans eagerly awaited to see if the Yankees could stage a comeback and keep their World Series hopes alive.
