Joan Jett is a big Baltimore Orioles fan. That was proven when she took in their Monday (August 28) night game at Camden Yards.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame received the All-Star treatment at the park. Part of that included spending time in the broadcast booth with Orioles TV announcers Kevin Brown and Ben McDonald. During her time in the booth, it was revealed the Orioles took their 2023 team photo that day. Jett happened to photobomb the team pic! (She can be seen in the top right of the team photo.) Jett said she purposely photobombed the pic, but she was initially in the middle of the shot.

Later on in the broadcast, Jett can be heard cheering for a base hit from Ryan O'Hearn that brought in two runs. Jett apologized for her outburst. Sure, there's the understood rule of "no cheering in the press box." However, rock legends like Jett can have at least one pass.
