Over the weekend, pop sensation Carly Rae Jepsen took some time off from her busy tour schedule to throw the first pitch at the Tampa Bay Rays home game. The Rays invited the 27-year-old singer to throw out this ceremonial first pitch since she was also part of the franchise's post-game concert series. Unfortunately for Jepsen, she managed to embarrass herself by spiking the baseball to the ground, which then made its way to a photographer, knocking the camera out of his unsuspecting hands. Jepsen laughed off the bad pitch and seemed to enjoy the rest of her time in Tampa Bay according to her Twitter and Instagram.
