For Bobby Witt Jr. and the Kansas City Royals, 2023 has not yielded much to cheer about. The team's 37-78 record puts them second-last in the entire American League.However, on July 28, Bobby Witt Jr. made at least one fan forget all about that. With the Royals trailing by a score of 5-4 in the 10th inning against the Minnesota Twins, the second baseman cranked a 414-foot moonshot off of reliever Jhoan Duran to deliver a 8-5 victory for his team.As exciting as the outcome was for Royals fans, it meant something special to one young fan in particular. After the game, a video emerged of a fan whose young daughter had travelled over 1000 miles from Georgia to watch her favorite player.Ryan Atkinson@ryandatkinsonAll the way from Georgia to see her favorite player hit a walk-off grand slam.
