Ghost frontman Papa Emeritus IV threw out the first pitch tonight at the White Sox vs. Cleveland Guardians MLB game, and footage has surfaced! Watch as Emeritus IV throws not the worst pitch we've ever seen (as if we've tried) in full makeup and wearing a White Sox uniform. Shame he didn't wear the full regalia, but I'd imagine that's pretty hard to throw a pitch in.

Ghost has been enjoying a very unexpected amount of success lately. The band's 2019 single "Mary On A Cross" went viral on TikTok and landed at No. 90 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with 6 million streams and over 1,000 downloads, as well as topped the Billboard Hot Hard Rock Songs chart for the week of September 9 through 15. The band released a new music video filmed in Tampa, FL for the song earlier today in celebration, and you can check that out below.
