On Tuesday, Andress laid it out on Instagram: “I was drunk last night. I’m checking myself into a facility today to get the help I need. That was not me last night. I apologize to MLB, all the fans and this country I love so much for that rendition.”
The country singer’s label Warner Music Nashville did not immediately respond to a request for comment Tuesday.
Andress has seen success, with two songs making it to the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The most recent song to chart was “Wishful Drinking,” a collaboration with five-time Grammy nominee Sam Hunt, from her 2022 album, “Good Person.”
The 32-year-old got her start as a Nashville songwriter, including with the 2017 Charli XCX hit “Boys” and Bebe Rexha’s “Girl in the Mirror” (2019).
Andress has a connection to baseball. Her father, Brad Andress, was a strength and conditioning coach who worked with the Detroit Tigers from 1990 to 1999, as well as the Colorado Rockies from 2000 to 2008 and New York Mets in 2011, according to Baseball Reference.
She learned life on the road from her father while he was with the Rockies, she told an Illinois radio station in 2020: “It taught me early on that I’m okay wherever I go because I’ll always be able to figure out like what to do and how to adapt. It really gets you out of your comfort zone and makes you okay with things that you wouldn’t normally do.”
