She back in her hometown for a big March Madness Music Fest performance tomorrow, and she couldn't miss the Astros v. White Sox.

Spring is upon us, and Megan Thee Stallion is back outside. There was a lull for a few months during and after Tory Lanez's trial, where Megan seemed to be shying away from the spotlight. Her fans supported the retreat, who understood that the Traumazine rapper needed a few moments outside of the prying eyes of critics. When she returned, Megan Thee Stallion served big hair at Vanity Fair's coveted Oscar's afterparty. It was there that she confirmed she was working on a new album. Since then, the Houston Hottie has hopped from one event to the next.

Today, Hip Hop fans had their eyes on the Houston Astros game—not only because they love baseball, but because Meg was throwing the first pitch. She was decked out in an almost all-white ensemble, complete with her Astros jersey. It isn't uncommon for rappers to take to the pitcher's mound; Houston native Travis Scott also did so. Megan looked great as the crowd looked on, making silly faces to the cameras that circled her closely. Then, it was her time to shine.

Megan Thee Stallion Laughs As She Misses The Mark

The announcer remarked that Megan was seen practicing, which didn't look so promising. However, she was all smiles as the crowd anticipated the first throw. It was a little far off to the left, but it was all in good fun. The hitmaker received hugs from players and cheers from the crowd for her attempt. Meanwhile, fellow Texas native and country star Cody Johnson delivered the national anthem before the Astros faced off against the Chicago White Sox. At the time of this publication, neither team has scored just yet.

Megan Thee Stallion is reportedly in her hometown because she has a big show tomorrow (March 31). The NCAA March Madness Music Festival is taking over the weekend, and Meg is set to hit the stage for the first time this year. Yesterday, 1501 Certified Entertainment even waved a white flag in an open letter from the desk of Carl Crawford. Megan has been at war with 1501 for years, and amid litigation, Crawford showed support. He asked for Houston to celebrate Meg's arrival and praised her accomplishments as an artist. Meg hasn't publicly reacted to Crawford's support or addressed their ongoing case. Check out Megan Thee Stallion at the Astros game above and more photos below.
