Denise Richards admits her performance of "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" over the weekend was hardly a home run.

The actress screeched her way through the classic tune during the 7th inning stretch of the Chicago Cubs game on Friday.

"Horrifying," she told the Palm Beach Post when asked about her performance. "I'm not a singer and then to be in front of all those people is a little terrifying."

Still, Richards (a native of Downers Grove, Ill.) said she loved being at the famed Wrigley Field.

"You feel like it's old-school baseball," she said. "I love how the scoreboard isn't all digital. It's very authentic and traditional."

She said she always loved baseball.

"I got into baseball with Charlie (Sheen, her ex-husband) because he's such a fan," she said. "And I played T-ball. I was the only girl on the boys team and I loved it. When I was a kid, I was such a tomboy and as I got a little older, that changed."

Which celeb slugger would make a great reality show star?

" Alex Rodriguez ," said Richards, who has her own E! show. "Whenever you're going through things in your personal life, you're approached. I'm sure that's why I was approached. And with the Internet and the tabloid magazines, your whole personal life is out there for everybody to see."

    If she knows she cannot sing, why did she perform to begin with in front of all those fans? They came to see a ball game, not some B-list actress pretend to be someone special to get attention.

    She used to be so beautiful until I listened to her vukgar mouth on the reality show with her dad and the kids. She is just trailer park trash.

    I don't think she made a fool out of herself, no one can sing that crappy song right. The whole purpose is to have a celebrity and draw crowds. What that celebrity may or may not do well, doesn't matter one bit.

    Can't believe people think because Sheen is pure white trash and only wants to satisfy his needs and wants, that anyone came say blame Denise. She is one great woman
