VIDEO: Juan Soto's Youth Coaches Watching His World Series Game 6 Home Run is a Total Delight
By Jerry Trotta
Alongside Stephen Strasburg, Juan Soto has been the Washington Nationals' most significant contributor in October, delivering countless clutch hits when his team needed him to come through. As expected, the 22-year-old budding superstar rose to the occasion during Game 6 on Tuesday night by pulverizing a solo home run off the scoreboard in right field to give the Nats a 3-2 lead, one which they would not look back from. Did anyone celebrate this more than the Nation's Capitol? Well, footage has just emerged of two of Soto's youth coaches going utterly ballistic witnessing him club the aforementioned moonshot. Believe us when we say that you won't be able to hold back a smile while watching it.
If this isn't everything that baseball is about, then we don't know what is. This is as pure and raw as emotions get, folks, and Soto's childhood coaches couldn't be more thrilled that their former player is thriving on the game's biggest stage.
Heck, he's STILL basically mid-childhood.
If you need us, we'll be watching this clip on repeat for the next hour or so.
