Kansas City and Jac Caglianone had a special guest in the stands: Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, accompanied by his wife Brittany, who went to the stadium to watch the Yankees vs Royals game, which had the special ingredient of the long-awaited debut of a young prospect.
Jac Caglianone made his home debut for the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. The 22-year-old has already created high expectations and the presence of Mahomes did not go unnoticed, as both sat in the front row to witness Caglianone’s first home game, just days after his promotion from Triple-A Omaha.
What was the score in the Royals vs Yankees game?
Caglianone was coming off a standout performance in his previous game, in which he had four hits. During Tuesday’s game, he drove in the Royals first run with a groundout in the second inning.
However, the presence of Mahomes did not bring good luck to the team as the result was not favorable for the home team. The Yankees took the lead early on, highlighted by a 469-foot, two-run homer by Aaron Judge in the first inning. By the middle of the game, the visitors were already leading 10-2.
Despite the loss, Mahomes may have more opportunities to see Caglianone in action. As a co-owner of the Royals, he will surely be able to get front row tickets whenever he wants.
Who is Jac Caglianone?
Caglianone is a first baseman and outfielder for the Kansas City Royals, having previously played college baseball for the Florida Gators as an infielder and pitcher. Thanks to his outstanding performance, he was selected by the Royals with the sixth overall pick in the 2024 MLB Draft, making his debut in 2025.
Who owns the Kansas City Royals?
Patrick Mahomes is, since last year, one of the owners of the Kansas City Royals, as he is probably the most important player in the history of the Kansas City Chiefs and has decided to invest in other teams in the city, albeit in another sport
That is why he invested a significant amount of money to get a place at the table of owners of the Kansas City Royals, as well as Sporting KC, so he will be involved in the destiny of the three Kansas City teams, in two of them as co-owner while in the other as the team’s quarterback and star player.
