Motley Crue‘s Nikki Sixx traded in his bass for a baseball by throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at the Los Angeles Dodgers’ game on Sunday (May 27).

Sixx took the mound at Dodger Stadium and threw his pitch, which bounced in the dirt on its way to home sweet home, but was luckily saved by catcher A.J Ellis.

After the pitch, Sixx shared his excitement with his fans on Facebook: “Really grateful being from Los Angeles to be invited to throw out the first pitch today at Dodger stadium (YES i can throw a ball). The Dodgers are on a winning streak and you could feel it in the air everywhere today. (New owners surly helps too.) My family had a blast.”

Well, Sixx certainly is a Renaissance man, as he’s both a member of Motley Crue and Sixx A.M., not to mention a best-selling author and an acclaimed photographer. But let’s just say he needs a little work on throwing a baseball. So, Nikki, stick to your day jobs for now, but we applaud the effort!

The Dodgers won the game 5-1 against the Houston Astros. Perhaps Sixx brought some luck to the mound?
