Blake Lively: wife and mother of four, actress and a “highly professional baseball player on the side.”
The “Gossip Girl” alum, 36, made light of Gary Cohen’s broadcasting faux pas during the Mets’ loss to the Guardians on Monday, when he dubbed Cleveland pitcher Ben Lively “Blake Lively.”
“Well, Cats outta the bag,” Lively wrote alongside Cohen’s soundbite in an Instagram Story on Tuesday. “I’m a highly professional baseball player on the side.”
Cohen had been discussing Ben Lively, who entered Monday’s contest against the Mets with a 3.06 ERA.
“Last year, Blake Lively made his first appearance of the year for the Reds in long relief and threw three scoreless innings. And now here he is, facing the Mets for the first time as a member of the Guardians, and he’s thrown three strong innings,” Cohen said on the broadcast.
SNY also poked fun at Cohen, writing on Instagram: “Was that Ben Lively making the start yesterday against the Mets…or was it someone else? Slip of the tongue from Gare.”
Ben Lively, who threw 5 2/3 innings in Cleveland’s 3-1 win on Monday, also chimed in on the mix-up.
“The amount of times this has happened,” he wrote Tuesday in an Instagram Story.
The Guardians entered Wednesday’s series finale tied for first in the AL Central at 32-17.
They defeated the Mets on Tuesday, 7-6.
As for Lively, she and husband Ryan Reynolds will celebrate their 12th wedding anniversary in September.
Reynolds, 47, and Rob McElhenney of “It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia” are owners of the soccer club Wrexham A.F.C., which is the focus of the FX docu-series “Welcome to Wrexham.”
