- [Conor] Let's go, Cubs.
Let's go.
Irish flag up there, oh look.
[inaudible] look…woohoo.
Oh, my God, look, look, look…oh, yeah.
[inaudible] how cool is this?
♪ [music] ♪
- Hello. - [Man] How are you doing?
- How are you, guys? How are you?
It's very nice to meet you. - Yeah, it's nice to meet you.
- [Chrissy] Hi, I'm Chrissy, from [inaudible]. - Chrissy, nice to meet you, nice to meet you.
- [Kira] Hi, I'm Kiera. Nice to meet you. - Kiera, nice to meet you.
I saw your video, I saw the video…
- Oh, yeah… - …when they rang, I was laughing.
- How you been? It's good to see you [crosstalk] - How you doing? Nice to meet you.
- [Coordinator] They're going to be singing with you later.
- Oh, right. Cool, yeah.
- So, these two are going to sing with you, and they're going to throw the first pitch.
So she's going to throw first, he's going to throw second.
Ladies first [inaudible] - Right, cool. Yeah, sure.
Sure. - So, I'll have you guys walk out to the mound.
- Now I feel like I should probably throw, because I wanted…you know, I don't…the leg is…
I could. I could do it.
- You go last.
If you feel up for it, you go last.
- I'll go for it.
I have…I couldn't not throw it, you know?
I've got to throw it.
- [Commentator] To throw out tonight's ceremonial first pitch, please welcome Conor McGregor,
who is accompanied by high schoolers Chrissy Presenio and James White.
- Yes…there's the Irish flag.
Look, the tricolor.
- Throw it hard.
- I had to throw it hard.
Can I go again, or no?
- What's that? - Throw again…
- No, we need your photo here. We're good.
- I had to throw it a bit hard [inaudible] - [Player] Yeah, I love that.
- Yo, man, thank you. I appreciate you, man. Thank you.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Oh, and I hurt the leg, you know?
I was like, do I want to pass it, or do I want to give it a little bit of venom?
I said give it a bit of venom.
- That's all right, I love that. - So, what would have happened there?
That would have been out, or what?
- Yeah, a ball.
Or you probably would have hit the right-handed batter.
- So, what does that mean?
Like, would I have to go again, or I would have been out, or what?
- Yeah, you would have…because you get four balls.
- Okay. Oh, do you, yeah? - Yeah.
- And then what, that's strike or that's out? - No, no, no.
So if you get four balls as a hitter, you get to go to first base.
- Right, right, right.
Okay. - So three strikes, and then you're out.
- Oh, okay.
So, would that have been a strike?
No? - Ball.
Way ball, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Ball, okay.
Yeah. That's better, right?
That's way better…
- For the hitter. - Yeah, right, right, right.
- Not for the pitcher, though. - Oh, right. Okay, right.
Right, all right…I get there, I get there.
I get there. - Yeah, you'll get there.
Well, thank you so much.
Right, thank you.
How was that? Was that a bad pitch? - [Woman] That was so…
- Uh, no, Michael Jordan threw it over, too, so... - Was that a bad…?
- Hey, we've had worse.
- Have you, yeah?
- Yeah, you know it.
- If I had to throw a punch, I'd probably miss.
- If it was a little left, if it was a little left, that probably would have taken him off his feet.
- Conor, I'm not going to waste any time.
Your first pitch, tell me your thoughts.
- The most devastating first pitch ever seen in the iconic Wrigley Field.
- So, I say this pitch is a little high, you say it's perfect.
- Well, the venom is there, the power is there.
It's a little off accurate-wise, but, you know, I'm on the one leg, you can see me base
fully on the left leg that was just recently injured.
But I'm happy with that.
I'll take that on board, yeah?
- So, you were not nervous to throw out the first pitch. Are you nervous to sing the stretch?
- Not at all, not one bit of nerves coming out on me.
