(CBS) There was quite the surprise waiting for Olympic gold medal-winning gymnast Shawn Johnson after she threw out the first pitch before Friday's Cubs-Phillies game at Wrigley Field.

Her boyfriend popped the big question after she left the mound.

Johnson got engaged to Andrew East just before Friday's contest. East is a long snapper who recently signed with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Johnson won a gold medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics in the balance beam. She also earned three other silver medals.
