Chicago baseball fans were treated to a huge "Homecoming" celebration yesterday afternoon (September 23). The Cubs and the White Sox faced off for some inter-city play, and Chi-town's own Kanye West was there to throw out the opening pitch.
The rapper even brought out a special guest for the ceremonial ball toss — his two-year-old son, Saint.
The duo walked onto the mound at Guaranteed Rate Field, using West's own "Homecoming" as their walk-up music.
It was a fitting choice for a celebrity pitcher, given that West loves his hometown so much he named his third kid after it.

Kanye West brought his son out to the field for the first pitch at the White Sox game, so he wouldn't get boo'd. The fans started to boo, but then they saw his son, Saint. You can't always hide behind your kids, @kanyewest. #NeverForget#KUWTK pic.twitter.com/LkwOaHlvoE
