The Golden State Warriors‘ Draymond Green is considered one of the best passing forwards in the league today. During last season's campaign, he averaged six assists per game – an even higher mark than some point guards.
But during Monday night's NLDS game between the San Francisco Giants and the Chicago Cubs, the Michigan State product threw the first pitch short and it bounced before reaching the catcher.

Unfortunately for the Bay Area squad, the Cubbies came away with the victory, knocking out the Giants from the MLB playoffs.
For Green, he should not be too worried about the failed pitch. His focus will now be on the Warriors' preparation for the coming season, which starts in two weeks.
Expectations are higher than ever for his squad which added, former MVP Kevin Durant to their fold this summer. Anything short of a championship will be considered a disappointment for the Warriors.
