There’s a reason pitchers don’t usually wear high heels. 

The Astros invited Daniella Rodriguez, Miss Texas 2016, to throw out the first pitch at Wednesday’s game and it was a disaster. 

Her pitch, which wasn’t quite as bad as 50 Cent’s, was about 30 feet short and 10 feet wide. Even Joe West wouldn’t have called it a strike.

The windup actually looked pretty good, so it has to be the shoes that were to blame.
