It's the perfect way to make a World Series loser feel like a winner ... invite Jon Gosselin to your wedding.
TMZ has learned Gosselin is flying to Hawaii this weekend to attend the wedding of Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Shane Victorino.
Is there such a thing as strike four?

DMX wants to get into the boxing ring and prove to everyone that he's still a tough guy, but there was a serious catch -- he'll only do it if the promoters can somehow MAKE the other guy lose ... anyone smell a fix?! 
It's all over an upcoming celebrity fight in Alabama -- X signed on to fight some wannabe actor named Eric Martinez. But after he agreed to a 3-round fight, DMX had a few demands ...
X's manager, Nakia Walker, submitted an addendum to the rapper's original contract for the fight, stipulating: "Event Promoter and Management agree that [DMX] is scheduled to win Boxing Challenge."
Walker also added a line which read, "All parties agree this event has been scheduled to occur only in fun and that the artist involved is not a professional boxer."
The fight promoters, Thunder Promotions, refused to sign the addendum -- claiming they never agreed to fix anything. Now, DMX is threatening to back out and the promoters are looking for someone to replace the rapper while they also prepare a lawsuit for breach of contract.
DMX's rep tells us the rapper really does want to fight -- rigged or not -- but she's forcing his hand because "he's a hip hop artist, not a boxer."

The guy who Chris Jericho targeted with racist and homophobic slurs on stage at the Sacramento Horror Film Festival isn't just saying Jericho was an "a-hole" that night -- he also claims Jericho's apologetic statement afterwards is a bunch of crap.
Mr. Lobo -- the guy who hosted the film festival -- says despite Jericho's claim that "everyone on stage was having a blast," he was deeply offended by the insensitive remarks and calls Jericho's statement a "complete fabrication."
Lobo claims Jericho never apologized to him and added, "I don't think [Chris] has the capacity to give an honest apology. I don't think it's in his character."
As TMZ first reported, Jericho went on a drunken slur-filled rant and called Lobo the homophobic f-word and another slur used to demean Middle Easterners.
For the record, Chris didn't even get his insult right -- Lobo says he's mostly Portuguese.

Frank McCourt won't have to see his wife around the office -- at least for now. A judge just shut down Jamie McCourt's bid to be reinstated as CEO of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
And, in a scene straight out of "War of the Roses," the judge ruled Jamie gets exclusive rights to the family swimming pool in Holmby Hills between 6 AM and 2 PM.
The judge also ruled Jamie gets exclusive use for now of the couple's Malibu home, each gets 2 trips to their various homes to remove their valuables and neither one can remove the other's name from their credit cards.
Frank fired Jamie last month after the bitter split in a marriage that lasted nearly 30 years.

GLAAD isn't buyin' Chris Jericho's apology for using anti-gay and racist slurs at a recent event -- in fact, the gay rights group is going after the wrestler for being "insincere and worn."
Jarrett Barrios -- president of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation -- tells TMZ: 
"Just three months ago Chris Jericho's boss and WWE Chairman Vince McMahon acknowledged to GLAAD that words matter.
There is no time, context or occasion in which it is acceptable to utter racist and anti-gay slurs. Jericho's hollow apology 'if (he) offended anyone' is a template used by many and is insincere and worn."

Reggie Jackson led the New York Yankees to two World Series wins and currently serves as the team's "special adviser" -- yet for some reason, he was hitting up a former Phillies player for tickets to last night's game!
We found Mr. October in front of his NY hotel where he tried begging onetime Philadelphia second baseman/current ESPN analyst Joe Morgan for a few extra tix.
We're guessin' Reggie got what Reggie needed.

With no fans, smiles or any support mechanism in sight, the Philadelphia Phillies returned from losing the World Series to the New York Yankees last night and moped silently as a team back into their New York hotel.
This may be the saddest thing you'll see all day.

WWE star Chris Jericho is wrestling with a pretty serious controversy -- after he made a slew of offensive slurs against Middle Easterners and gays.
Jericho was at the Sacramento Horror Film Festival two weeks ago ... for a screening of a movie in which he appears. During a Q&A session, Jericho referred to the moderator several times as "Hadji" -- a term sometimes used as a racial slur against Middle Easterners.
After the first wave of slurs -- and a random shot at Paris Hilton -- the host jokingly takes Jericho's drink to sniff it for booze, when Chris chimes back, "it's apple juice ... fag."
Jericho tells TMZ, "After seeing the video I realize some inappropriate comments were made and I apologize if I offended anybody." Jericho continues, "Just know that everyone on stage was having a blast and we all shared a drink and a laugh after! The good news is I got my wish of being posted on TMZ."
Yes you did, Chris.

L.A. Dodgers owner Frank McCourt's divorce from wife Jamie has a new plot twist -- the ex-wife of the ex-Dodgers employee who is now the current boyfriend of Frank's estranged wife claims Jamie's new man is a big fat liar. Follow that?
Here's the lowdown. This past weekend we posted a story that Jeff Fuller -- who was fired by the Dodgers last month as either the Director of Protocol or a driver -- was accused in 1995 by his then-wife of brutalizing her when she was 7 months pregnant .... pushing her into a wall and knocking her down. The wife -- who now goes by Michele DesMarteau -- got a restraining order against Jeff.
We also posted a letter Jamie's rep forwarded to us from Michele to Jeff, which said Michele believed the legal documents we obtained had been altered and that Jeff was never violent.
Now ... Michele contacted us yesterday and said she never wrote the letter Jeff's rep forwarded to TMZ. She says Jeff asked her to make the "false statement" but she refused. She says he wrote the letter knowing the incident really did occur.
Jeff tells TMZ Michele "approved" the letter. He did not say if she wrote the letter or if he wrote it. Interesting.

Both Kim Kardashian's and Reggie Bush's L.A. homes are now officially up for sale -- and we're told it's because the couple is looking to take things to the next level and settle down ... together.
A source close to the couple says before Reggie put his house on the market, he took a quick break from dominating in the NFL with the New Orleans Saints to fly to L.A. and go house shopping with his girl in the Hollywood Hills.
Kim's condo is currently going for a cool $1 million while Reggie's bachelor pad is priced at over $5 million ... but here's an adorable detail: They're both sharing the same real estate agent.
And with Khloe all married up and Kourtney all knocked up ... we're guessing Kim's clock is ticking pretty loud.
