MLB Teams Issued Warning as Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes Demands Big From Kansas City Royals

Baseball hasn’t completely left Patrick Mahomes! Although the Kansas City Chiefs’ quarterback chose football over a potential MLB career, he remains a fervent follower of the sport. Growing up as a big fan of the Mets, thanks to his father Mahomes Sr.’s ties to the franchise, Mahomes now roots for the Kansas City Royals and has high hopes for them this season.

Appearing on the ‘Riggle’s Pick’ podcast on July 3, 2024, Mahomes expressed his excitement over the Royals’ performance this season. With a 48-40 record, the Royals currently hold the third spot in the American League Central, sparking optimism for their playoff prospects.

“It’s really cool, man. I got here right after they kind of went on that run where they won the World Series and won those championships. So I haven’t got to see playoff baseball at the K, so let’s get that thing going this year,” Mahomes said. His enthusiasm is palpable, especially considering the Royals haven’t won the World Series or the Central Division title since their spectacular 2015 season. Mahomes, whose affiliation with Kansas City is well-known, is eager to see the team return to its former glory.

In June 2024, the Royals showcased their resilience by overcoming an eight-run deficit against the Mariners to win 10-9 in a spectacular comeback. An ecstatic Mahomes took to social media to praise the players, tweeting, “The boys got heart!!!!! @Royals.” While keeping an eye on the ballpark, Mahomes is also enjoying a dream vacation with his family.

After wrapping up preseason OTAs and mandatory minicamps with the Chiefs, Mahomes flew to Portugal for a month-long vacation with his wife Brittany and their children, Sterling and Bronze. The family has been traveling around Europe, creating fresh memories. Following their visits to Portugal and Spain, the Mahomes clan made their way to Switzerland, where Brittany shared cozy snapshots of the family from their visit.

Currently, the Mahomes family is enjoying their time in England. Brittany posted photos of Sterling and Bronze posing in front of the London Bridge on her Instagram stories, showcasing the joy and smiles of their adventure.

While Mahomes is making brief appearances on podcasts, catching baseball games, and touring Europe, his return to the States will mark a busy period. He will rejoin the Chiefs squad for preseason training camp, and his father’s DUI arrest hearing is scheduled for July 22. However, for now, Mahomes is enjoying a well-deserved break from his professional responsibilities.

As Mahomes cheers on the Royals from abroad, the baseball community is abuzz with his passion and optimism for the team. His influence extends beyond the football field, and his support might just be the extra push the Royals need to make this season memorable.
