Charlie Sheen Hints at Throwing Out First Pitch Before Game 7 of World Series vs Cubs

The Cleveland Indians are making Wild Thing's heart sting.

Charlie Sheen desperately wants to throw out a ceremonial first pitch before a World Series game in Cleveland. He believes that much is owed to him because he portrayed an unhinged fictional Indians player (Ricky Vaughn) in a couple of Major League movies over 20 years ago.

Let's just go ahead and say it: Charlie Sheen doesn't have a whole lot else going for him these days. He needs this.

But through the first three Cleveland home games in the series, Sheen received no such call. This seemed to irk him.

But, yes, it appears Sheen used a picture of goats at Progressive Field to hint at cursing the Indians in favor of the Cubs. This is to say that if the team didn't take a final opportunity to enlist his services prior to the decisive Game 7 on Wednesday night, it won't be #winning the World Series.

Is it possible that such a threat struck enough fear into the hearts of the team's shot-callers that they decided to phone the Wild Thing? This picture tweeted by Sheen on Wednesday morning seems to hint as much..

They need to put a shrine to Jobu in the Cleveland locker room.

Bring out Dennis Haysbert. The All State Insurance Pitch Man.

A bit of Trivia, Charlie Sheen, Michael Jordan, and yours truly all went to the same baseball camp. For awhile it was named after Mickey Owens and then also at one time it was named Sports Stars of Tomorrow.

I wasn’t there at the same time as Charlie and Michael but I loved that place. We usually played 3 or 4 seven inning games everyday.

They actually sort of did earlier this season. Jan Gomes was really slumping at the plate so they sacrificed a chicken and asked Jobu for forgiveness.

And before anybody damns them to hell, they were just kidding around...kids having fun. I respected a bunch of kids who were too young when the movie first came out, to actually give it some props.

I'd be fine with him throwing out the pitch. But nobody OWES him anything. He was an actor playing a role. Nothing more.

With the strong pitching arm demonstrated by the current occupant of the WH, the honor must go to Chicago’s favorite son.....          /humor not

Too much dope and broads have screwed up Ole’ Charlie's brain.

He can't distinguish between fantasy and reality.
You were in a MOVIE, not in the Indians organization.

Get a life.

Hate to say it but sounds like dementia. He’s HIV positive, isn’t he? Given his past behavior, maybe his meds aren’t keeping the viral load down and he’s gone into full-blown AIDS.
