Ex-Red Sox pitcher Joe Kelly rocks mariachi jacket in Dodgers’ White House visit

Former Red Sox Mookie Betts and Joe Kelly visited the White House on Friday to celebrate the Dodgers’ 2020 World Series title.

Kelly decided to make a bit of a fashion statement. The relief pitcher rocked a mariachi jacket, as seen in a picture he took with Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner.

He acquired the jacket Tuesday. Prior to the Dodgers game that day, Kelly met a member of the Los Angeles-based Mariachi Garibaldi band and discussed giving him his Dodgers jersey for a jacket. During their game against the Giants, Kelly – while in the bullpen – found the band member to complete the swap.
