Browns tight end David Njoku organized the event which was held at Classic Auto Group Park in Eastlake.
Several NFL stars, including Travis Kelce and Nick Chubb, joined in on the fun to raise money for charity.
Also taking part was social media personality Ross Smith, who often teams up with his grandmother for online skits.
Smith accompanied his 97-year-old grandmother to the plate for a hit, with the grandmother making strong contact.
She ran to first base to cheers from the crowd with Smith in tow.
Kelly Jr. went first and watched the social media star walk toward the bag at his own pace.
He waited until the last moment before stepping onto the plate, rushing to celebrate with Njoku as boos rained down from the stands.
“Classic brown behavior to be honest,” laughed one fan in response to the viral images.

“That’s what happens when you don’t finish!” added another.
“Cleveland always goes to Cleveland,” said a third.
“This is why it’s so important to move quickly,” laughed a fourth.
Elsewhere in the event, Kansas City Chiefs star Kelce was the main attraction for the watching crowd.
The three-time Super Bowl winner posed with children and won the home run derby before the charity contest.
“He is one of the purest human beings I have ever met in my life,” Njoku told reporters.
“Always means well. Just a great guy.”
