Last week, hip-hop superstar 50 Cent made the first pitch at a baseball game and it went horribly wrong, with the ball veering off to the far left instead of making its way to the centre.

During a recent Reddit AMA, the rapper was asked to explain himself following his terrible throw at the New York Mets' Citi Field and provided the fan with a very specific response:

"I have a skeletal muscle injury on my left shoulder from excessive masturbation so take it easy lol."

Back in 2012, Fiddy offered men advice on how to stop feeling frisky via his official Twitter pageand wrote: "Masturbation is a sin you stop right now fool!!! lol God is watching you. Step to stop masturbating. Step 1. To avoid the urge to masturbate stop going to porn sites. Step 2. Make a conscious decision not to turn your head after people walk by you. Step 3. Do not go to strip clubs. Step 4. Do not look at lust filled magazines."
