Watch Bad Bunny Keep His Winning Streak Going by Snagging Epic Foul Ball at Yankees-Blue Jays Game
On Tuesday night, the Puerto Rican superstar was just another baseball fan.
Bad Bunny attends the game between the New York Yankees and the Toronto Blue Jays in game three of the American League Division Series at Yankee Stadium on Oct. 7, 2025, in the Bronx borough of New York City.
Leading up to his halftime performance at next year’s Super Bowl, Bad Bunny spent some time studying the original American pastime by attending Tuesday night’s (Oct. 7) game three of the American League Division Series between the New York Yankees vs. Toronto Blue Jays — where he just so happened to snag a foul ball.
In a clip posted by the MLB on X, Benito sits with friends just behind home plate at Yankee Stadium. As the Blue Jays’ Anthony Santander hits a foul ball straight up into the air, the Puerto Rican singer-rapper follows its trajectory with his eyes and attempts to catch it as it falls into his section.
Though the ball ends up bouncing off of Bad Bunny’s shoulder and dropping to the floor, the clip cuts to him holding up his new keepsake with a big smile on his face.
The game would later end with the Yankees defeating the Blue Jays 9-6, though you could argue that Benito was the real winner of the night. The small victory comes four months before he’s slated to set up shop in an even bigger stadium to perform at the 2026 Super Bowl, which will go down on Feb. 8 in Santa Clara, Calif.
But while countless fans couldn’t be more excited for Bad Bunny’s showcase, other people — including the president of the United States — aren’t as keen that a primarily Spanish-speaking artist got the gig. “I never heard of him,” Donald Trump recently said. “I don’t know why they’re doing it. It’s, like, crazy. And then they blame it on some promoter [Jay-Z’s Roc Nation] that they hired to pick up entertainment. I think it’s absolutely ridiculous.”
Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson also called Bad Bunny’s appointment a “terrible decision” and suggested that 82-year-old Lee Greenwood should have been chosen instead. But in the replies to the MLB’s video of Benito catching the foul, one person quipped at Johnson’s expense, “I can’t believe they didn’t let a country artist or Lee Greenwood get it.”
