Matisyahu had a good excuse for the misfire during Jewish Heritage Day at the ballpark this past weekend, though. He wasn’t throwing a baseball but a matzah ball.

The rapper, 44, clad in all white and wearing a New York Mets hat, took a sip of matzah-ball soup before chucking the dumpling—reinforced with extra flour for extra airtime—towards Miller, 30, also in white and who donned a yarmulke atop a Mets hat while playing “catcher” at the Mets’ ballpark in Queens, N.Y.

Miller missed the ball by a long shot.

Miller is known for playing the DC Comics superhero “The Flash” in recent feature films. The character is known, obviously, for his great speed.
