In a quiet week for sports, one event has emerged as the talking point across the world, but not for the way baseball would have liked. Heading into Monday and the marquee event of the MLB calendar the All-Star weekend, fans were expecting to see some of the best in action in the Home Run Derby, but things took a sharp turn heading into the event.
Grammy Award winner Ingrid Andress was tasked with the National Anthem, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a trainwreck;
The event went viral on social media, with many claiming it to be one of, if not the worst anthem performances in sports history, and now we know exactly what happened.
According to Andress, she was intoxicated before the event and still went ahead with it, but vowed to check herself into rehab to hopefully get things under control, and while it's not a great excuse, she appears to be taking responsibility and action on the back of it. Unfortunately, this event could follow her for a long time to come, but with the All-Star game coming up, MLB have a chance to steal headlines for a good reason this time.
