Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm couldn't help himself but laugh during viral singer Ingrid Andress' shaky rendition of the 'The Star-Spangled Banner' at the MLB Home Run Derby.

The 27-year-old, first-time All-Star had a hard time trying to contain himself while Andress went off key several times while singing the US national anthem before the hard-hitting event at Globe Life Field on Monday night.

At one point, while the ESPN broadcast focused on him, Bohm can be seen burying his head in his chest, as he clearly wanted to avoid showing the grin on his face in public. 


'Bohm almost lost it,' a person wrote on X, while someone else pointed out that the Omaha, Nebraska native was like 'all of us' during Andress' performance. 

'Players deserve credit for keeping straight faces,' another user added.

Andress - a four-time Grammy nominated artist - drew comparisons with Fergie after going viral for all the wrong reasons, as some said that she sang far worse than the former lead singer of the Black-Eyed Peas at the 2020 NBA All-Star Game.

Someone said on X: 'Ingrid Andress giving Fergie a run for worst national anthem ever performed.' 

'My ears are bleeding. One of the worst national anthem renditions ever,' another person shared. 

'That Ingrid Andress national anthem might have been the worst thing to happen in America in the last 48 hours #brutal,' said a different individual on the social media platform. 

Andress has yet to address the reactions to her performance. 

Andress was previously nominated for four Grammys, and cracked in the Billboard Hot 100

The 32-year-old singer previously cracked into the Billboard Hot 100 for her 2019 single, 'More Hears Than Mine,' which peaked at 30. 

She earned a Grammy nomination in 2021 for Best Country Song but lost out to The Highwomen. 

Andress' latest hit, 'Wishful Thinking,' featuring Sam Hunt was nominated for a Grammy last year. 

Meanwhile, Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernandez emerged victorious from the home run derby after beating out Royals star Bobby Witt Jr. by one homer in the final round.
