Vedder's a die-hard Cubs fan, so you know he was pumped to take the mound at the Friendly Confines. He then thrilled the Wrigley Field fans by tossing a perfect strike to pitcher Kerry Wood (even while wearing a collared shirt beneath his jersey). As an added bonus, he stuck around to sing "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" during the seventh-inning stretch.
