The MLB All-Star Game is almost here, with the preceding events already taking place. The All-Star Celebrity Softball game was played last night, and we got to see some very famous people attempt to play the game.

The Celebrity All-Star Softball game is always hilarious to watch. It is not that serious and it is great to watch everyone try to play baseball. It really puts into perspective how hard the game is and how easy the pros make it look. However, there are some people who excel during the softball game.

This was the case for Celebrity pop star Jojo Siwa. She did great during the game. She even hit a home run off of the famous rapper Quavo. He is particularly known for his basketball skills, but not so much for baseball.

Jojo Siwa gained her rise to stardom on the famous show "Dance Moms" where she appeared as a dancer for one season. She then joined Nickelodeon and became a mega-famous children's pop star.

Siwa ripped the ball to left field. It went past the outfielders enough for her to run all the way around the bases for an inside-the-park home run.

As soon as she hit this, the MLB comparisons came flying in.

It is refreshing to see non-MLB players try the sport. It gives a sense of reality and really shows how elite Major League Baseball players are at their profession.
