Joe Jonas had a quick-witted response for baseball fans confused by the performance he and his brothers gave during Game 2 of the 2025 World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays.
"Why these guys," Jonas commented on an Instagram post from Major League Baseball announcing the Jonas Brothers at the Oct. 25 game at Rogers Centre in Toronto.
The post featured a video and photo of Nick Jonas, Joe Jonas and Kevin Jonas, who performed their song "I Can't Lose" after the game's fifth inning.
The Jonas Brothers' performance was part of a Stand Up To Cancer tribute, during which players, coaches, fans and even the Jonas Brothers held up signs honoring loved ones affected by cancer.
The brothers held up a sign honoring their dad, Kevin Jonas Sr., who is a cancer survivor, according to MLB.
Some baseball fans took to social media in the aftermath of the group's performance to express their disappointment at the Jonas Brothers interrupting the World Series game.
"Sorry this isn't the Super Bowl, there is no half time show. So ridiculous," one commenter wrote beneath the MLB Instagram post.
"Was anyone else completely confused by the halftime concert AT A BASEBALL GAME?????? I mean, just why?" another Instagram user commented.
"You stopped the game for a performance?" wrote another.
According to MLB, the league and its 30 clubs are founding donors of Stand Up To Cancer.
In addition to the Jonas Brothers' World Series performance of "I Can't Lose," the brothers also released a video for the single during the 2025 MLB All-Star Game in Atlanta this past July.
The Dodgers went onto defeat the Blue Jays in Game 2 of the World Series, 5-1.
Game 3 of the series will be played in Los Angeles on Oct. 27.
