Once again, the MLB has been outclassed in the art of the first pitch.
You guys have already seen the crazy stuff the KBO pulls for their pregame festivities, but Japan’s Nippon Professional Baseball League really upped the ante on Wednesday with a Sadako (The Ring) vs. Kayako with Toshio (The Grudge) showdown.
That’s right, your two favorite Japanese horror villains took to the diamond before a Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters-Yakult Swallows game to promote their upcoming film, and the results were epic.

There you go — even Sadako throws a better first pitch than most of our athletes.
Sidenote: In case you were wondering, Sadako vs. Kayako is going to be released on June 18.
