Amir Johnson bounces 1st pitch at Blue Jays game, goes *just* a bit high on 2nd try (Video)

Just like my father always said: "If at first you don't succeed, make a joke out of the whole thing and throw a baseball into a crowd." It's not just advice. It's an ethos.

Good stuff, Amir Johnson. I don't suspect you'll be asked back to Rogers Centre any time soon, but I guess if John Wall got the chance to redeem himself after this rough outing at a Washington Nationals game, anything's possible.

Well, anything but not getting made fun of by your Toronto Raptors teammates for your lack of control:

Great first pitch by @iamamirjohnson -__- ....smh wrong sport not supposed to bounce it lol

Solid advice, Quincy Acy. You should try to remember that "don't bounce it" thing next time, Amir. Just file it away for safe keeping.
