Ken Jennings is spending some quality time with his son.

Last week, the Jeopardy! co-host, 51, posted a rare selfie with his son Dylan on Instagram. The duo could be seen wearing Seattle Mariners hats and enjoying the game, smiling together.

“The lucky Mariners earrings might be heading for an 0-1 start,” Jennings wrote in his caption, referring to the earrings that Dylan is wearing in the photo.

Jennings shares Dylan and his daughter Caitlin, 18, with his wife Mindy. Jennings was born in Washington, attended the University of Washington, and raised his family in Seattle, which could explain why he roots for the Mariners despite taping Jeopardy! in Los Angeles.

Although the trivia host doesn’t often share photos of his home life, in October 2022, he shared another photo of himself and Dylan at a baseball game.

The dad of two shared an image of his son Dylan wearing a Mariners baseball jersey at a baseball game. The then-college sophomore was seen carrying a tray of stadium food and giving a thumbs up to the camera.

The fun snap also showed that the father and son share a striking resemblance.

“The last time his team made it to the playoffs, this guy wasn’t born yet. He just started his sophomore year of college. Congrats @Mariners!” wrote Jennings.

In 2021, Jennings gave some insight into his parenting style and shared what surprised him most about becoming a dad.

“The constant change: People tend to remember their childhood as a constant, steady state, but when you see a kid from a parent’s eye, you realize there’s a new interest or a new quirk every few weeks,” Jennings told Yahoo! Life in 2021. “It’s eye-opening how your own perception of childhood maybe isn’t that accurate. You need to be ready for your kid to have a new challenge or obsession monthly — or more.”

He explained, “Parenting is always a moving target: you’re really just responding to the current needs of the kid, which might be different [needs] than six months ago. So it’s a lot of listening, because the kid will tell you what you need — but it’s not going to be what you expect and it’s not what you remember you needing at their age.”
