If you thought the golf swing of Charles Barkley is bad, take a look here at his baseball swing

When it comes to Charles Barkley, there are a lot of things that we like to poke fun at him about. Of course, one of the more famous jabs that we like to take at Sir Charles is pointing out just how downright awful his golf swing is. With that said, though, have you ever wondered what his baseball swing looks like?

Well, you’re about to find out.

Ahead of the Chicago Cubs taking on the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday, Barkley went out and took a little batting practice with maybe the best team in the National League, the Cubs. And, well, let’s just say it’s not much prettier than that golf swing of his.


Now when you look at that, actually, it is better than that golf swing of his, so he can take solace in that fact. Still, it’s not the best swing in the world and it’s pretty damn funny when you watch it over and over.

The Cubs have a lot of fantastic hitters in their lineup this season, but Barkley won’t be offered a contract to join that group anytime soon.
