Robin Quivers Gets a Shot at Baseball Redemption on 'Jimmy Kimmel' (VIDEO)

It was a good night for 'The Howard Stern Show' on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' (weeknights, 12AM ET on ABC). Previously, Gary Dell'Abate (a.k.a., "Baba Booey" -- the show's producer and unofficial mascot) played a game of catch with Kimmel. And it went badly. How badly? Bad enough that Mr. Booey hit an audience member in the head with a baseball.That wasn't the worst part. Baba Booey was already trying to recover from one of the greatest televised baseball disasters ever. The producer threw the ceremonial first pitch at a Mets game -- and missed home plate by about fifteen feet.
Clearly, the 'Howard Stern' cast needed a baseball "do-over." So Howard's co-host Robin Quivers tried to see if she could put things right. But would she end up "throwing like a girl," so to speak?
Robin stood in the same position as Baba Booey had. But her task was made much more difficult -- because she was wearing a tight black dress and high heels. Jimmy Kimmel crouched among the audience members with his catcher's mitt. Ms. Quivers pulled her arm back. There was the wind-up. The pitch. And ...
... Robin nailed it! Whooo! But was this a win for 'Howard Stern'? Or another embarrassment for Baba Booey -- since now it's been shown that he can't throw as well as someone standing in a pair of stilettos?
