White Sox employee hits photographer with ceremonial first pitch.

1. Move over, Baba Booey, 50 Cent, the former mayor Cincinnati and all the others. The worst first pitch in the history of Major League Baseball took place Tuesday night in Chicago.

Somehow, the photographer who got nailed with the pitch lived to tweet about it.

Happy to report that both myself and the camera are okay 👌📸 https://t.co/Pu04xYY7Z8

2. I'm rooting for the Warriors because of Drake, but clearly I'm in the minority based on this poll.

Pretty much all of America is rooting for a Canadian team to beat the Warriors in the NBA Finals https://t.co/hrUxywuRyL pic.twitter.com/i60pExiJfh

3. The best thing about this embarrassing Mike Francesa segment isn't just that he's railing about dads who want to spend time with their newborn children. It's how he drops in the most insincere "congratulations" to his board op on having a kid.

4. Tim Tebow's disastrous season for the Mets' Triple-A affiliate (he's hitting .156) continued Tuesday when he struck out against a position player.
