“Why these guys?,” Jonas commented on an Instagram post<\/a> from Major League Baseball announcing the boy band at Game 2 in Toronto.<\/p>\n The post showed Nick, Joe, and Kevin Jonas, who played their song \u201cI Can\u2019t Lose\u201d during a tense point in the face-off between the Toronto Blue Jays<\/a> and the Los Angeles Dodgers.<\/p>\n The score was tied 1-1 in the fifth inning when the game paused for MLB\u2019s annual Stand Up to Cancer<\/a> tribute. During the emotional moment, players, coaches, fans, and sports broadcasters at the game held up signs with names of loved ones who had been diagnosed with cancer. The Jonas Brothers, who serve as Stand Up To Cancer ambassadors, held up a sign for their dad, Kevin Jonas Sr., who survived colon cancer.<\/p>\n open image in gallery<\/p>\n The Jonas Brothers are ambassadors for Stand up to Cancer (Getty Images)<\/p>\n After the tribute, the Jonas Brothers appeared on stage and gave a performance that the announcer explained was dedicated to those living with cancer \u2014 but some baseball fans <\/a>were frustrated by the song interrupting the game.<\/p>\n \u201cSorry this isn\u2019t the Super Bowl, there is no half time show. So ridiculous,\u201d one commenter wrote under the MLB\u2019s Instagram post. Another slammed on X, \u201cThis should have been done after the national anthems, not during the 7th inning stretch. And a concert too? What’s going on here? Ridiculous.\u201d <\/p>\n Some fans even joked that the brief break shifted the game\u2019s outcome, saying, \u201cIf the Jays lose it\u2019s entirely on that weird Jonas Brothers performance in the middle of the game.\u201d The Dodgers went on to defeat the Blue Jays 5-1.<\/p>\n Joe Jonas<\/a>, 36, appeared to poke fun at the criticism by chiming in, but the Jonas Brothers haven\u2019t issued an official statement on the online commentary.<\/p>\n open image in gallery<\/p>\n The Jonas Brothers’ performance at the MLB World Series left baseball fans confused (Getty Images) open image in gallery<\/p>\n The Jonas Brothers performed their song ‘I Can’t Lose’ after the fifth inning in Game Two of the World Series Saturday (Getty Images)<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re proud to celebrate our partnership with Mastercard in support of Stand Up to Cancer during such a meaningful moment at the World Series with a performance of \u2018I Can\u2019t Lose\u2019 in tribute to this powerful campaign,\u201d the band said in a statement ahead of the performance, Billboard<\/a> reported. \u201cAs lifelong baseball fans, it\u2019s special to be part of a moment where music and purpose come together.\u201d<\/p>\n Kevin Sr. was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2017 and has been in remission since 2018. Nick Jonas opened up to People<\/a> in July and said the diagnosis brought their family together.<\/p>\n “Everyone has their own experience too in life’s challenging moments and I’m so grateful that we have gotten to the other side of that and become closer as a family and stronger,” the singer said.<\/p>\n After the World Series performance, the Jonas Brothers resumed their Greetings From Your Hometown tour, celebrating their newest album<\/a> as well as the 20th anniversary of the band.<\/p>\n![\"The](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/GettyImages-2243307997.jpg\")
