Blake Lively knocked it out of the park with her reaction to a sports commentator accidentally mixing her up with New York Mets pitcher Ben Lively.
“Well. Cats outta the bag. I’m a highly professional baseball player on the side,” Blake, 36, who has no relation to Ben, 32, wrote via her Instagram Story on Tuesday, May 21, alongside a video of the flub.
Ben shared a screenshot of Blake’s reaction via his own Instagram Story on Tuesday.

Mets announcer Gary Cohen made the mistake during the team’s Monday, May 20, game against the Cleveland Guardians.
“Last year, Blake Lively made his first appearance of the year for the [Cincinnati] Reds against the Mets in long relief and threw three scoreless innings. Now here he is facing the Mets for the first time as a member of the Guardians,” Cohen, 66, said.
The clip Blake shared, which was posted via SportsNet New York’s official Instagram page on Tuesday, featured photos of the actress edited to make it look like she was donning a Guardians baseball cap. Cohen’s joint Instagram account with fellow Mets broadcasters Ron Darling and Keith Hernandez, @garykeithron, also shared the video.
Was that Ben Lively making the start yesterday against the Mets … or was it someone else? 🤔,” the caption read. “Slip of the tongue from Gare 🤣.”
