Queens, New York rapper 50 Cent’s tragic opening pitch at a New York Mets game last year, which was made fun of by the likes of Kid Ink and Kevin Hart, will now be immortalized thanks to a new trading card created by Topps.
According to XXL magazine, 50’s pitch will be placed on a special edition first pitch baseball card from Topps, which produces football, basketball, hockey, and other sports-related trading cards.
News of the G-Unit helmsman’s new trading card was announced by the official Twitter account of the New York Mets earlier this week.

Following the now-infamous pitch, which took place at a game last May at the Mets’ Citi Field, 50 Cent has addressed the pitch on numerous occasions. In an Instagram post that followed the pitch, 50 declared that he’s “a hustler not a Damn ball player.”
The rapper continued to poke fun of his pitch when asked about the incident during a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) in June.
“I have a skeletal muscle injury on my left shoulder from excessive masturbation so take it easy lol,” 50 Cent wrote during the Reddit AMA.
