Avril Lavigne -- Take Me Out to the F*@&%+ Ball Game!

Avril Lavigne was all smiles when she threw out the first pitch before last night's Tampa Bay Rays game, but she lobbed a few four-letter words at the crowd when a technical glitch messed with her post-game concert.

According to local reports, Avril's mic didn't work at the start of her show ... and she responded to the cavalcade of boos by yelling obscenities at crowd.

Rays rep Rick Vaughn tells TMZ, "The Rays demand profanity-free performances from all of our concert performers and we are extremely disappointed by the language used in last night's show. It is not consistent with the family-friendly atmosphere that Tropicana Field is known for."

Calls to Lavigne's rep were not returned.

UPDATE -- Several of our readers were in attendance last night and point out via our message board ... that while Avril did drop a few F-bombs, they weren't directed at anyone in particular. Her real fans, it seems, enjoyed the show just fine.

Just a puplicity stint that had some "bumps". Now you know how well she handles pressure. Unlike other personalities when things go "bump".

I am Canadian, I cant stand Avril, she is a embarrassment to Canada...she is so silly, with her stupid streaked hair , phony smile , and her pretend little girl voice. She has no talent for singing thats why her band tries to drowned her out when she is singing..I wish she would just fade out of sight, and grow up.

Don't feel bad, Fran. The U.S. has more than its share of idiotic, talentless hacks!
