    It might not be one of Pearl Jam's classic songs, but Eddie Vedder has got "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" down pat.

    The Pearl Jam lead singer and Chicago-area native once again led the Wrigley Field faithful in the Seventh Inning Stretch, his latest rendition coming during Tuesday night's Cubs game against the Mets.

    Vedder is one of the Cubs' most famous fans, and he's made his fandom no secret. He's even written a song about the Cubs one day winning the World Series, and when Pearl Jam played at Wrigley Field, Vedder sang the song on stage with Ernie Banks.

    Vedder honored Banks, who passed away earlier this year, by wearing a No. 14 pin during his Tuesday-night serenade.

    Check out Vedder's latest version of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" in the video above.

    Love when Ed does this and wish I was in town for the show. As a met fan it was the highlight of the game. Ron Darling showed some love on the Mets broadcast which was cool.

    That being said. There is infinite Meme potential with the screenshots from this. Just search the Eddie Vedder hashtag on Instagram and have at it.

    Ed singing Take Me Out To The Ballgame is always enjoyable to watch, he always seems like he's having the best time ever! And way cool picture on the Cubs' Instagram, thanks for posting KDH12.

    I am so bummed that they didn't announce this until the game had already started! I have been waiting to get tickets to see if Ed would sing the stretch. A heads up would have been nice! Anyway, not complaining, just a little frustrated. Still enjoyed it on tv!
