Overview

  • Christensen kicked off the Aug. 15 Cubs vs. Pirates game at Wrigley Field by throwing out the ceremonial first pitch before joining his daughter for the 7th-inning stretch.
  • The actor and his 10-year-old daughter counted down and led fans through “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” while both sported matching Cubs attire.
  • A jet released blue smoke overhead during their duet, creating a sudden interruption that reporters linked to nearby Chicago Air and Water Show rehearsals.
  • Christensen wore a vintage No. 66 Cubs jersey as a playful nod to his Star Wars role and laughed through the flyover before resuming the performance.
  • Briar Rose, whom he shares with ex Rachel Bilson, rarely appears in public, making their joint seventh-inning stretch a standout family moment.
