Joan Jett is a lifelong Orioles fan and a baseball oddity in that she's a lefty who bats righty. That's so rare I know of only two examples. One is Jett, the other is me.
Early 00s Joan Jett with cropped bleached hair holding a baseball bat and wearing a no. 13 Baltimore Orioles home jersey on a fake baseball card. She's listed at shortstop. Unusual position for a lefty, but I think she's played every position at fantasy camps over the years. Classic 1978 photo of Joan Jett in a black Runaways tee with a bat on her shoulder, at a batting cage. Another mocked-up baseball card, this time for Swell and listing her as one of the "Baseball Greats" and her positions as "Guitar/Vocals." A Topps-style baseball card featuring Joan Jett taking cuts in the batting cage while wearing studded leather cuffs and a black Runaways tee, circa 1978. Her position here is listed simply as "Guitar." Her team, the Runaways. A Joan Jett Orioles fantasy camp baseball card from 1991 depicting Jett in a full Orioles MLB uniform pitching from the mound. Again, left-handed.
