Born on the outskirts of Philly and raised in Maryland, rocker Joan Jett has considered herself a Baltimore Orioles fan since the late sixties. During Monday’s game against the Chicago White Sox, Jett got the grand tour -- helping call the game from the broadcast booth and even dropping into the team's 2023 roster photo.

In this clip from the game captured by a fan, Joan Jett is seen comfortably chatting in the broadcast booth talking about her long-time support for the Orioles, even giving her best shot at calling the game play-by-play. Jett also got into some inside baseball by demonstrating to viewers how to properly throw a screwball.
But perhaps the best part of her visit was when Joan decided to sneak into the Orioles' 2023 team photo. In the tweet above, you can clearly see Jett high up and to the right in the stadium's rafters as the team poses on the field below.
"I was trying to photobomb them," Joan explains to Orioles TV broadcasters Kevin Brown and Ben McDonald. "I moved out of the way, I was right in the middle though."
"It's been so special," Jett adds. "We're all having such a good time here."
