The Canadian pop star was spotted during last year’s World Series between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
“Yeah, I went to a game,” Bieber said. “Honestly, I don’t really watch baseball, but I respect it. Honestly, I’ve been watching it more recently when it’s on.”
He proudly showed his support for the Blue Jays, wearing a Shane Bieber jersey with the No. 57 on the back. He was accompanied by his wife, Hailey.
During the event, Bieber tried playing baseball. After warming up and throwing a few pitches, Bieber celebrated enthusiastically after completing his five-pitch stint.
Justin Bieber has been a longtime supporter of Toronto sports teams
Justin Bieber has never been shy about showing his love for Toronto sports. His connection and love for the city have been evident over the years. Apart from celebrating the Toronto Blue Jays at Game 3, he is also a die-hard fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
“My love for the Maple Leafs has always been a big part of who I am, and my passion for the team, and the passion of millions of fans, is stitched into this Next Gen sweater,” Bieber said in a 2022 statement. “I’m grateful to the Leafs for the chance to team up again to create something so authentic for the team and its fans.”
Bieber also shared an image from his seat at Game 3 of the World Series on his Instagram account, celebrating the moment. Apart from their World Series visit, he and his wife, Hailey, also attended Leafs games as part of their date nights.
